At The Table

There is One Power, One Presence, One Beloved Spirit which moves in, through and as all of us. This is God, our Creator and our Source of All Good.  I invite this beautiful God Presence here at the Thanksgiving Table knowing the ONE takes many different forms.
As I look into the eyes of all sitting AT THE TABLE, I see the Face of God looking back at me.
I am grateful to be AT THE TABLE with my family, for I feel their love, trust and support forever.
I am grateful to be AT THE TABLE with my relatives, for they remind me of the extension of God’s love  and  the knowledge  I am related to all human beings.
I am grateful to be AT THE TABLE with my friends, for I know I am truly accepted for who I am.
I am grateful to be AT THE TABLE with my co-workers for I know our collaborative work helps each person to succeed.
I am grateful to be AT THE TABLE with my team for we come together in full cooperation knowing we have each other’s backs and best interest at heart.
I am grateful to be AT THE TABLE with strangers, for I bring forth within myself greater compassion, greater generosity knowing I have enough to give and to share.
I am grateful to be AT THE TABLE with my pets, knowing they bring me great joy and unconditional love no matter what kind of day I have had.
I am grateful to be AT THE TABLE with the decorative flowers and delicious food, for I am appreciative for the bounty and blessings of  Mother Earth.
AND I am grateful to be AT THE TABLE with my enemies, for I know those who are unkind, mean, and/or deceitful are also God’s children worthy of love, kindness, and understanding.
So as we break bread together AT THE TABLE, we understand our human and Spiritual ONENESS, our inter-relatedness, inter-connectedness and inter-dependence of all Life. Everyone AT OUR TABLE  is  sacredly nourished, maintained and sustained in body, mind, soul and sprit. For there is no other, there is just God being God in all through all, as all.
And So It Is.  Amen
