Daily Minyan Original Reading
The Temple, Congregation B'nai Jehudah
July 18, 2022
Eternal God,
Creator of all things
All beings
You have given us light to sense this wondrous world
And the universe around us
And provided many ways for us, beyond and besides our sight,
to experience the miraculous nature of our existence.
You have inspired in us the pursuit of the light of knowledge
That has enabled us to bring into focus
Views of far-away galaxies, distant in both space and time,
Whose images amaze us and remind us
How small our planet is,
But, also, how we are part of something so mysterious and
So expansive, that we can hardly fathom or understand
How it all came to be.
Even more, Eternal One,
We ask You for the wisdom to turn
our amazement, our wonder, our awe
into love for the people who are our fellow travelers on earth
So that we will realize that we all need each other
to grow and to thrive.
May we overcome our differences just enough
To be able to bask in Your light and Your Oneness
So that we will see ourselves as one people
on this one world
That journeys with so many other worlds through
Endless time and space.
