Though our questions may overwhelm us,
and our doubts stridently speak,
We praise you, O God, for the gift of faith.
Though we may miss the signs of your life,
and ignore the little resurrections all around us,
We praise you, Divine Spirit, for the gift of faith.
Though we may constantly seek after proof,
and refuse to believe without seeing,
We praise you, O Christ, for the gift of faith.
Thank you, Great Mystery,
for your life
that transcends our understanding,
for your presence
from which we can never flee,
for your resurrection
which is never defeated,
and for the gift of faith that enables us to trust
even in the midst of our doubts and fears.
Amen.
