Dear
Lord,
You
are the Lord of our creative endeavors. Let all the things we do; all the
things we say; all the decisions we make, be completed in the same spirit of
creativity that you gave to Bezalel.
For
he was able to give beautiful and meaningful substance to the place where the
Israelites were to meet with you in the desert
Now
Lord, we, your church are that place. Help us to live as producers; as creators
of beauty with substance and meaning in all that we do
Keep
us from the sin of presuming that which is pragmatic is always your way
Let
us abandon ourselves to creatively worship you in spirit and truth that our
creative work may be a sweet fragrant offering to you, so that the fragrance of
the knowledge of your glory may be spread everywhere
Amen
