Creator God, we pray for the ongoing ecological devastation in the Gulf of Mexico. We pray not only for those who are helping the cleaning effort, and for those whose livelihoods are affected by this disaster, but also for ourselves. We confess our addictions to unhealthy, unsustainable lifestyles, and our failure to properly steward your creation and protect your creatures. Forgive us our trespasses, and remind us that the earth is yours and all that is in it, the world and all that live in it. Amen.
