Our Master Gardener,

Word of God,
let us come to you when we have no words
when the world in all its brokenness, nonsense, injustice and horror
overwhelms us.
Let us come to you
so that your word
can fill us up
with
prayer
petition
hope
and right action.

John 1-5:
The Word was first,
the Word present to God,
God present to the Word.
The Word was God,
in readiness for God from day one.

Everything was created through him;
nothing–not one thing!–
came into being without him.
What came into existence was Life,
and the Life was Light to live by.
The Life-Light blazed out of the darkness;
the darkness couldn’t put it out.
