Responsive Litany
for Epiphany 7A

Don’t you understand that you yourself
are each a temple of God,
for within you  God’s Spirit chooses to live?

O God, turn my eyes from focusing on vanities,
give me a life that is set in your ways.

You are to be generous like your Father in heaven,
who gives the sun to rise on both rogues and the righteous,
and sends refreshing rain on both the just and the unjust.

O God, teach me the heart of your statutes,
and I will then follow it to the very end
