A Prayer for 4-15-12

God of Life and Love, with joy we celebrate the season of our Lord's resurrection. By the grace of Christ among us, fill us with the breath of your peace, touch us with the wounds of the world, feed us with Christ's humility, bind us together in love and community, and bathe us in your warm light. Open us to your presence around us that we, like Thomas, may declare, "My Lord and my God." And, in the mystery of your "eighth day," make us a new creation, raised with Christ, alive in your most precious world. We pray with the confidence of Thomas. Amen.
