Scripture  

Colossians 3:17 (NRSV)  

And whatever you do, in word or deed,  

do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus,  

giving thanks to God the Father through him.  

Refrain  

God is present here.  

Quote / Poem  

Thomas Merton  

“Life is this simple.  

We are living in a world that is absolutely transparent  

and God is shining through it all the time.  

This is not just a fable or a nice story.  

It is true.  

God manifests himself everywhere, in everything—  

in people and in things and in nature and in events.  

The only thing is that we do not see it.  

...But the gate of heaven is everywhere.”
