The day after Thanksgiving…
Forgive us, Lord,
for yesterday’s over-indulgence
and educate us at the similar time
not to waste what’s ours in abundance
or hoard the products
that others want a lot…
As we plan and store for Christmas
make us grateful for the bounty
we already depend as ours
and conscious of the wants
of our neighbors close to and much…
Tempt us to be beneficiant
with open hearts and wallets
to those that actually want a share
of all we have now aplenty,
of all that is ours to share…
Assist us discover the deeper which means
within the days that lie forward:
what’s holy, therapeutic, useful,
what makes us actually glad
within the reward you might be for us
and in our giving of ourselves…
Amen.
