Original reading (remembering my Bar Mitzvah)
November 18, 2024
Merciful Creator,
Author of Freedom,
As we move along the journey of our lives,
We make choices that bring us
The possibility of growth
And the specter of challenge.
We don’t always know
What the consequences of our actions will be.
Yet, when we recognize the amazing order within nature
And the miracles that sustain our own existence,
Our resulting gratitude should lead us in a direction
Established by the wisdom of our heritage
That has been passed down to us
A tradition that encourages
Nurturing our souls
Expanding our minds
Valuing truth,
Practicing respect, trust and decency
And demonstrating love for humanity
That reflects Your great love,
Which encompasses every one of us
Within Your guiding presence,
Longing to make us One.
