God of the ordinary,

we praise you.

You take the drabness of our thoughts,

and brighten them into vivid imagination.

You take our everyday lives,

and transform them into holy, precious moments. 

You take our limited offerings,

and multiply them into an abundance of delight. 

Extraordinary God,

you light up our thoughts, our lives, our selves

with the wonder of your light. We praise you.  Amen.
