Bright
and beautiful God, thank you for our world, a place of beauty and variety.
Thank you for the wind and the waves, the stars in the sky, the changing
of the seasons, the animals in all their splendor.
Thank
you, God, for the gift of people, men, women, and children, of many
colors and creeds, in different shapes and sizes, with many gifts and
talents, all made and loved by you.
Thank you, God, for the variety of life; everything points to your love and glory. Amen.
