A prayer for starting your family’s summer with worship and wonder

Gracebased | Your Monday Moment

Good Father,

As our family starts the summer,
Help us begin
With a posture

To receive and behold,
All the good things you have for us.

To worship and wonder
Our very loving Creator
Who made a world teeming with beauty and delight
For his children to discover.

Like fireflies dancing in twilight,
Green grass for kids to run on,
The thrill of a rollercoaster
And quiet satisfaction of a good book…
Watermelon, crackling campfires, half-eaten popsicles.
There’s simply extravagant goodness
In every corner of our amazing world.

We thank you for what’s to come,

Even in the gift of anticipation,
Knowing we have you:
Our very good father
The greatest gift to enjoy.

Amen.
