Almighty and everlasting God, you have given us your servants grace, by the confession of a true faith to acknowledge the glory of the eternal Trinity and in the power of the divine majesty to worship the Unity: keep us steadfast in this faith, that we may evermore be defended from all adversities; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.
Readings: Isaiah 40:12-17. 27-end
Wonderful images that describe both how God is so far above humankind as to have no need of us, and also how God is completely committed to us for ever.
