Because so often life seems to be without order:
I love you, O Holy One who creates and tells stories.
Because I struggle to understand and tackle the world’s injustices:
I love you, O Holy One who promises deliverance.
Because I strive and try and work…and then wonder where I’m going:
I love you, O Holy One who guided Hagar and Miriam and Naomi.
Because you do not leave me alone when I need comfort and when I need prodding:
I love you, O Holy One who is restless and passionate.
Because you are not me; because you are beyond this world and still choose to be part of it:
I love you, O Holy One who lights the fire when I need it most.
