Prayer: Seeds of Hope

Here’s a prayer of dedication or closing prayer from Christopher Burkett.  It was posted on the Mother’s Union website.

Prayer

Risen Lord of the harvest,
as the wild flower scatters its seeds far and wide,
so may your people scatter the seed of hope in the soils of despair,
bringing to growth those good things that are your gift and promise.

And may the blessing of God Almighty,
the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit,
rest on us and on all our work and worship done in his name. Amen.
