To fashion a circle of unity - Daily Minyan reading - June 15, 2023

Original Reading 
June 15, 2023

Eternal One, 
Creator of the Universe, 
With planets, stars, and galaxies 
Moving in their appropriate paths, 
Open our eyes to see the light 
That shines upon this world. 
Open our hearts to feel the glow
Of connection with our fellow travelers 
On the earth. 
Open our minds to fathom 
The brilliance of the many forms 
of wisdom and insight
That have emanated from our ancestors
And that continue to grow 
Inside of us and alongside of us
 in our communities and nations. 
Be with us at sunset
So that we can contemplate the gifts 
of the new day to come. 
Be with us at sunrise
So that we will act in ways 
that will bring promise
To our future. 
Open our hands to give to others 
And to join with our brothers and sisters 
To fashion a circle of unity 
Which will bear the mark of Your Oneness
That will continue to pervade our very existence.
