Thanks for those who pointed us to God


Loving God,
 
We give thanks for those people you put in our way in order to call us to yourself

We thank you for your endless creativity

In finding ways to woo us.

We thank you for the way you are all about connectedness and relationship

And as we are made in your image we are about those things too.

We thank you for your great love for us

And that you seek us out.

Thank you for the courage and faithfulness of those people

Who prayed for us

Shared their story with us

Encouraged us

Found the right moment

Took the plunge

And pointed the way to you.

 

When we consider the people who did these things

for all of us here today

it’s overwhelming

Many many people

Some of them now gone to be with you

A great cloud of witnesses around us.

 

God of abundance and love

We praise you

God of abundance and love

we thank you.

Amen
