Praying this ThanksGiving Day
Thank you, Creator of the Universe,
For the people gathered around us today.
We give thanks for the things of the earth that give us the means of life.
Thank you for the plants, animals, and birds that we use as food and medicine.
Thank you for the natural world, in which we find the means to be clothed and housed. Thank you Lord for the ability to use these gifts of the natural world.
Help us see our place among these gifts, not to squander them, or think of them as means for selfish gain.
May we respect the life of all you have made.
May our spirits be strengthened by using only what we need, and may we use our strength to help those who need us.
Amen.
