“Every good and perfect gift comes down from the Father above, who gave us the sun, moon, and stars. But unlike them, the light that comes from the Great Spirit never dims, flickers, or casts a shadow.” (James 1:17, First Nations Version)
Great Creator, we offer this prayer of gratitude to You,
For the warmth of the sun that shines upon us.
We are grateful for the way it brings light to our world,
And for the way it nourishes the plants and animals around us.
We give thanks for the way it brings warmth to our bodies,
And for the way it fills our spirits with joy and energy.
Great Creator, we know that the sun is a symbol of Your love,
And we feel blessed by its radiance every day.
We ask that You continue to bless us with its light,
And that You help us remember the beauty of this world.
May we always be grateful for the gifts You give us,
And may we always honor Your sacred creation.
Aho.
