Illustrator's prayer

A couple of months back we were discussing the idea of writing prayers that connect with our working lives, that invite God into our daily routine, that might help us to find the spiritual depth in the mundanity of our everyday experience - "heaven in ordinary*"...

Anyway, here's what I came up with...

My creator
You are a big God
with an eye for the smallest things
Guide my hand today
and lead my eye
May I find you in my graft
and in the crafting of things
And may you be found in the things I create
amen

Si :-)
