Love, Longings, Losses

God, You are woven into every week.  You are found in the highs, lows, and just so-so’s in this week.  The mystery of Your incarnation is not just at Christmas but every day.  The Holiness of Your presence is found as we grieve our losses, name our longings, and are honest about the love that holds us each day.  Help us as summer starts to wind down, at least up NORTH!, to be awake and aware of what You are up to in the world.  Help us prepare to turn the calendar to the month of September.  What are we longing for?  Where are we grieving?  And how is Your love still showing up every day?  Let these questions fuel and feed our lives as we take bread, drink from cups, absorb the pain and pleasure of life, and try to find meaning in new ways.  In the name of Christ, whose wisdom we follow and who transforms how we live.  Amen.
