A Prayer to the South

Secret Santa Day Two brings the red quadrant of the South and a prayer for strong inner spirits.


Acbadadea,
Creator of All things,
you have made all that we can and cannot see.
Your glory is revealed in Grandmother Earth,
the ground that we grow upon.
We find truth in and through Nature,
and an unrelenting trust,
for it is all we have to sustain us.
So is our faith in You.
We are witness to your Creation,
to the life that thrives only through community and hard work.
We strive to live in imitation of
and harmony with
all encompassed by this great circle.
We pray in search of strong inner spirits,
that we may uphold the harmony of Creation,
bringing the peace and compassion of the most holy,
Our Lord, Acbadadea,
to all life here on earth.
We recognize that our own spirits radiate around us,
And pray to keep this influence energizing, life-giving.
We pray for strength during times of struggle,
to stand tall like a sapling despite a storm,
or hopeful as a seed spreading roots in the driest soil,
whose fruit is the strongest and most beautiful to blossom.
Let us be close to all Grandmother Earth bears,
that we may be close to your spirit.
Aho.
