Prayer to the God of Passion and Power

God of passion and power,
insistent, immediate,
challenging, compelling us with your story’s breathless beginning.
Walk us into the wilderness
to hear your voice where silence reigns.
Give us insight, the vision beyond all seeing,
so we may look upon heavens torn open
and know that the time of good news for all creation
is always now. Amen.
