Re-Creation

Taylor Burton-Edwards       Director of Worship Resources,  UMC General Board of Discipleship       "By spending time each year in a more focused way on God's many gifts in creation, we are not seeking to compartmentalize creation to just a few weeks a year, but rather deepen our appreciation for creation as an integral part of our worship and discipleship throughout the year and throughout our lives."

Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let the pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that, although the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place. ~Kurt Vonnegut

A Beautiful World

Be soft. 

Do not let the world make you hard. 

Do not let the pain make you hate.

Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. 

Take pride that, although the rest of the world may disagree, 

you still believe it to be a beautiful place. 

~Kurt Vonnegut

God of All

God of great and God of small, God of one and God of all, God of weak and God of strong, God to whom all things belong.

            Alleluia!

God of land and sky and sea, God of life and destiny, God of never ending power, yet beside me every hour.

            Alleluia!

God of silence, God of sound, God by whom the lost are found, God of day and darkest night, God whose love turns wrong to right.

            Alleluia!

God of heaven and God of earth, God of death and God of birth, God of now and days before, God who reigns forevermore.

            Alleluia!
