Original Reading
February 24, 2025
Creator and Sustainer of us all,
You know our minds and hearts.
You have provided us with possibilities
For growth and progress
If only we would see the paths that will lead
In that direction.
Sometimes people choose power over principle
Leaving their fellow human beings
In dire straits
Facing war, hunger, oppression
And other challenges
that were unnecessary from the start.
Where there is war, may we work towards just and lasting peace.
Where there is hunger, may we find new ways
to share our resources so that no one is deprived
of life-sustaining nourishment.
Where there is real and persistent oppression,
May we uncover the causes of prejudice and hatred
That lead to discrimination
And provide support, protection, security and comfort
That will uphold time-honored teachings of
Decency, honesty, respect and love.
Open our minds and hearts to Your wisdom and vision
So that we will experience the blessing
of Your everlasting Oneness.
