Resurrection Prayer
Our sisters from the Province of Ireland posted this prayer the other day on social media. As I prayed and reflected with it these days, I thought it would be good to share it on our blog. May we always seek the light of the resurrection and choose life.
Resurrection Prayer by Kathy Galloway
Christ our life, you are alive
in the beauty of the earth
in the rhythm of the seasons
in the mystery of time and space
Alleluia
Christ our life, you are alive
in the creative possibility
of the dullest conversation
of the dreariest task
the most threatening event
Alleluia
Christ our life, you are alive
to offer re-creation
to every unhealed hurt
to every deadened place
to every damaged heart
Alleluia
You set before us a great choice.
Therefore we choose life.
The dance of resurrection soars and surges through the whole creation.
It sets gifts of bread and wine upon our table
This is grace, dying we live.
So let us live.
