Prelude

Call To Worship

*Hymn                   My Faith Looks Up to Thee                          64

* Invocation

Leader:  God speaks through the trees and water and lilies of the field,

People:  And the words “peace be with you are heard.”

Leader:  God speaks through the budding flowers and twinkling starts,

People: And the surely “peace be with you are heard.”

Leader:  God speaks and is still speaking, when every living creature on earth breathes:

People:  Peace be with you.  Peace be with you.

Leader:  Yet some do not hear the message.

People:  Some do not hear God speaking through the whisper of nature or the word of the neighbor.

Leader:  They doubt.

People:  God speaks but they do not hear.

Leader:  God speaks, but do we listen?

People:  Or can we believe without seeing…

Leader:  Can we hear creation’s blessing of peace be with you and speak of peace ourselves?

Together:  God speaks through the sunrise and the sunset, the neighbor and the friend in Christ.  And we are granted another day to respond.  Thanks be to God.
