Weary with the day that is now ending, from the labors needed, from the efforts given, from the joys shared, from the peace faithfully cultivated, from the meals made and served and received, may we gladly name why and how we are grateful, and in that gratitude find a welcoming home. Weary after the day now ended, each of us with our own struggles, troubles, and sorrows, each of us called to and offering comfort to others, may we recount why and how we have been challenged and changed by this day, and in that recounting be surprised again or for the first time in meeting the holy somewhere in all that muck and mess. Weary and now ready to rest, may we unburden our hearts and take up dreams worth living, guided by love in sleep as we are awake, renewed by hope with each breath, preparing again for morning. Amen.
