God, our Creator, who has intricately and beautifully interwoven all things into the immense tapestry of creation, give us eyes to behold its beauty, give us sensitivity to its intricate design and overall patterns. Where rips and tears and overuse have marred its integrity, give us wisdom and courage to mend and to restore the fabric of your creation as you have created and called us so to do. We pray in the name of Christ who reconciles and renews all things in creation. Amen
