Dear Jesus,
Help us to be small, like the meal and oil

belonging to the widow of Zarephath.

Help us to entrust the provision to You.
Help us to be small, like the yeast in the dough.

Help us to entrust the rising to You.
Help us to be small, like the mustard seed.

Help us to entrust the increase to You.
Use our smallness for Your glory, Lord.
May the Anglican Communion become a home for the bereft,

a sustenance for body and soul, and a haven of peace. Amen.
1Kings 17:8-16, Matthew 13:31-33
