Gracious God, you inspire us with your Spirit,
granting wisdom, skill, and understanding to accomplish every good work you have prepared for us.

so fill us with your grace, that we may use our talents for your glory.
Remind us that we were once far off, but now, by your mercy, we are brought near through Christ.
Make us living examples of your handiwork, created anew in Jesus
for the good works you have called us to do.
Through him who unites us and gives life, Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen
