Here’s a contemporary
call to worship inspired by the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:3-12, Luke 6:20-22). It was written by Katherine Hawker.
Call
to Worship
(inspired
by Matthew 5:3-12, Luke 6:20-22)
Happy are we
when our treasures
cannot be quantified.
Happy are we
when our knowledge is
tempered by mystery.
Happy are we
when our pain is held
in the balm of love.
Happy are we
when our delight
comes from beyond ourselves.
