Opening
Prayer
(inspired by Psalm 42, Psalm 78, Psalm 104)
God, you split rocks in the wilderness,
and gave your people abundant drink, as from the
deep.
Come
to us, Lord.
Give
us that abundant water.
You made streams come out of the rock,
and caused waters to flow down like rivers.
Come
to us, Lord.
Send
the waters down upon us.
You turned the desert into pools of water,
the parched land into springs of water.
Come
to us, Lord.
Create
springs in the parched desert of our hearts.
As a deer longs for flowing streams,
so my soul longs for you, O God.
My
soul thirsts for God, for the living God.
Come
to us, Lord, and fill our longing.
