Ever needing to be filled
the clay jars of our lives
Empty vessels, poured out,
in submission, through
grace,
Needing Your presence
Your sacrifice, Your gift,
we trust in You alone.

“Abundant God, we thank you for the jars of our lives
that are constantly being filled. We offer our gifts to
you,

Fill the hungry with good things. Lift up the oppressed.
Watch over the stranger and comfort the lonely.
Through our gifts, may we do likewise.
In the name of Christ the Comforter, we pray. Amen”
