Holy One, Divine Presence within and around us,
Here we are at a new beginning—perhaps a little excited and wondering what comes next.
We give thanks for all that has brought us here: the people who have loved us, the joys that have delighted us, and even the struggles that have shaped us.
Open our hearts to unexpected opportunities, holy surprises, and possibilities we have not yet imagined. Give us courage to move beyond the familiar and trust the gentle nudges of your Spirit in what lies ahead.
May we move forward with grateful hearts, joyful spirits, and a good sense of humor when things do not go exactly as planned.
For your love is always creating, always renewing, always inviting us into fullness of life.
May every new beginning become a doorway to grace—and may we recognize the Holy One smiling at us along the way.
Amen.
