Liturgy for Before Exercising

Written by Hannah Hubin from “Every Moment Holy, Volume III”

Creator of my being
Who breathed life into soil
And made it move, beat, and breathe,
I praise you for the living dust that I am.

Help me make a habit,
In these moments of exercise,
To practice gratitude for these gifts
Of strength, motion, and endurance—
This daily kindness of health and ability
I receive from You alone.

By this exercise,
Better equip me for Your service:

Clear my mind, lift my eyes,
And strengthen my limbs
For whatever work of loving God and neighbor
You might have for me this day.

Even so, O Lord, You know my frame.
You remember that
These muscles are dust.

So protect me from discouragement
And help me take joy in my physical limitations,
Even while I attempt to improve my health.

Protect me also from comparison
From competition that ceases to serve
As playful love of my neighbor and
As joy in the strength You have given me,
Becoming instead something nearer
To pride or nearer to despair.

May I move through this exercise
With endurance,
Receiving the challenge with joy,
And fixing my eyes on You
The creator and sustainer
Of my body as well as my soul.

Prayers for Nye’s father-in-law and YHC energy for the new year. Praise for answered prayers for Tarzan’s wife.
