We blessed our season with apples, honey prayers and potluck. A little something I wrote for the event:
A Blessing for the EPIC season
Upcoming evenings will bring a focus on the environment, poverty, and forgiveness among other stuff.
Tennessee
Lord I've really been real stressed, down and out, losin ground...Take me to another place, take me to another land, make me forget all that hurts me, let me understand your plan. Lord it's obvious we got a relationship, talkin to each other every night and day. Although you're superior over me, we talk to each other in a friendship way. Then outta nowhere you tell me to break outta the country and into more country...I ask you lord why you enlightened me, without the enlightment of all my folks. He said cuz I set myself on a quest for truth, and he was there to quench my thirst But I am still thirsty. The lord allowed me to drink some more. He said what I am searchin for are the answers to all which are in front of me. The ultimate truth started to get blurry, for some strange reason it had to be, it was all a dream about Tennessee.
A Blessing for the EPIC season
| God of us, God of everything We come to you as ragged journeyers Welcome God, Have we said that enough? We are the deliquents. The ones who want to shout out in the middle of the sactuary "But what about this?!" The ones who stay up too late on Saturday, The ones who would rather go to brunch on Sunday, The ones who talk about you over cocktails and keg beer God, we don't know anything, but we really like to try and figure it out. So, we ask you to give us a little laser pointer towards the truth. | We do our best to love others, as you first loved us As we serve each other, we serve you Help us remember that its about you, its about love Not us. As we begin our new season bring us chaos, bring us peace bring us truth, bring us song And as your people we all say: We Believe |
