Prayer of Invocation: Two Masters

Here’s an opening invocation from Katherine Hawker’s Liturgy Outside website.

Opening Prayer
(inspired by Luke 16: 13, Matthew 6:24 and other passages)

Masters,
two and more,
competing for our money
clamoring for our time
creating chaos in our lives.

Master,
one God,
quiet us and draw us near.
