Our
blessings are legion,
O Lord,
but that doesn't mean
that
demons aren't
swirling
in our lives,
attempting
to possess us.
We find
ourselves surrounded
by
Consumption and Greed,
by
Comparison and Indifference,
by
Judgment and Fear.
Cast out
all of these
who would
influence us
to want
more and love less,
to hoard more and give less.
Show us
the lie
of
Scarcity that we
may live
the truth
of your
Abundance.
Into the
places where Hurt
and
Anxiety have crept,
pour in
your Grace
that it
may seep
all the
way to the marrow
of our
souls, and we
may find
the truth of Enough.
