Lord, sometimes we see you as a devouring fire
on the top of a mountain. Sometimes we
see only a shadow of what is to come.
Sometimes we sense that the kingdom of heaven has come near. However we perceive your presence, the
substance belongs to Christ. Do not
forsake the work of your hands, for we repent of all that separates us from
you.
