Creator God, we praise you for the variety in your creation. Help us to discern the importance of depending on each other and the creation for our existence. Deliver us from our selfishness and greed and help us to be good stewards of your creation. Enlighten us to be wise enough to interdepend upon each other for a meaningful life. Through Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God now and ever. Amen.
