Christ, cast your light upon us.

Jesus,
will you cleanse our
blind-man
eyes?
Let us see through mud.
Move us from
by-standers to disciples,
from hiders in blinders to fearless believers;
from dwellers in darkness to
holders of your light.
Let
us see
with our souls.
His brothers were startled
when you picked
David,
the lowly, sheep tending son.
Please
startle us again.
Pick us. Please say to us,
“These are the ones,” the least likely
to do your
work.
Then, you do your work
in us.
Christ,
cast your light upon us.
Let it shine out from us
and
gleam upon
every sorry place,
every wonderful face,
all who need your grace.
Amen.
