Something to think about:

God of grace and glory;  Open our eyes that we may seethe world through your eyes; Open our ears that we may hear cries for justice with your ears; Open our hearts that we might share your compassion; Open our minds that we might discern your truth; Open our mouths that we  might speak your word;    Embolden us with your Spirit that we might: respond to all we see and hear; put into practice what we learn from you; and be messengers of your grace and glory.  Amen
