A Christian Aid Prayer from “Harvest of Hope”

God of hope, With you nothing is impossible.

Your promises endure, Your Spirit sustains us.

Establish in us hope for your world; Hope that moves us, Like fire in our bones, Like a shoot springing up from the soil, Like an ever-flowing stream.

Nurture in us a vision for change.

Stir in us a desire for justice,

That our hope may become action,

That your will may be done. Amen

A Hymn to pray (STF 124)

For the fruits of his creation

thanks be to God;

for his gifts to every nation

thanks be to God; for the ploughing, sowing, reaping, silent growth while we are sleeping. future needs in earth’s safe keeping, thanks be to God.

In the just reward of labour,

God’s will is done;

in the help we give our neighbour,

God’s will is done;

in our worldwide task of caring

for the hungry and despairing,

in the harvests we are sharing,

God’s will is done.

For the harvests of the Spirit,

thanks be to God;

for the good we all inherit,

thanks be to God;

for the wonders that astound us,

for the truths that still confound us,

most of all, that love has found us,

thanks be to God.

A Harvest Meditation

The earth is fruitful; may we be generous.

The earth is fragile; may we be gentle

The earth is fractured; may we be just.
