God of Moses and Elijah, of Christ, and the disciples, we too could build you booths, but you would not be pleased.  We could bring you burnt offerings, but you do not desire them.  You ask us to do justice, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with you.  We come now before you, placing our lives in your service.  Take us, women and men, young and old, to use us as you deem fit.
