God of power and justice,
like Jeremiah you weep over those
who wander from you,
turn aside to other gods,
and enter into chaos and destruction.
By your tears and through your mercy,
teach us your ways
and write them on our hearts
so that we may follow faithfully
the path you show us. Amen.

God Eternal,
you inspired Jeremiah to buy a piece of land
when no one could see a future in it.
Grant us such commitment to the future of your people,
that you will always have workers for your vineyard
and harvesters for your fields. Amen.
