Collect: God of Promise and Life, we thank you for the gift of the Holy Spirit, who dwells within us and leads us each day. When truth falters and justice stands silenced, strengthen us to stand firm in hope and love. Write your law upon our hearts and renew us from within, that we may walk in true obedience and freedom. Breathe life into dry places, reviving our spirits to serve you with joy. Remind us that our bodies and communities are your living temples. Teach us to love you deeply keeping your commandments and trusting in your abiding presence. Hear us when we are weak; and guide us by your spirit into paths of peace and faithfulness. Make us signs of your promise and presence in the world, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
