You continue to visit us today through the large, magnificent and small wonders of creation to which we lowly humans can relate. The meaning\u00a0 of somethings have yet to be revealed. We thank you for your servants through whom you have worked over the millennia, for the plants and animals that preceded us in creation, and for the writings through which you have spoken and explained. Continue to show us the errors of our humanly ways and your plan for everlasting life. In Jesus&#8217; name we give you thanks and offer this prayer.
