To Appreciate and Care for All Living Things

Creator God,
When you spoke all of creation into existence, you gave mankind the responsibility of overseeing and caring for it. Carrying out this duty diligently is an expression of thanks for giving us such a variety-filled and fascinating world to discover and appreciate. Let us be informed consumers, aware of products and processes that are irresponsibly and unnecessarily harmful to the environment. Give us an appreciation for how you provide for all living things around us as we also care for things like gardens, houseplants, and pets. It is no small thing when you bring to life and sustain it. Neither should we take for granted when you heal or restore anything living that was damaged or unwell. Thank you for this world and for all that lives in it. Help us tend to it well.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

To Marvel at the Created World

God of all wisdom,
Thank you for your gifts of knowledge and intellect. Not only do such gifts allow us to know and understand you better as you reveal yourself to us in your Word, but they also amplify our love and appreciation for you as we know more about you through your created world. Create in us an ongoing curiosity to seek and discover more knowledge about the marvelous ways your created world works. Fascinate us with flora and fauna and how they thrive differently in a variety of ecosystems. Take our breath away with the vastness of the solar system and the galaxies within it. Through the ingenuity of the inner workings of our own human body, leave us in awe of your brilliance. As we grow in our appreciation for the world you have given us and entrusted to us, may we never cease to be amazed by your genius and drawn even closer to you. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
