Eighth Sunday after Trinity Sunday Collect (Redub)

Everlasting God,
your power sustains the universe.
We eagerly ask you to direct, govern and
make holy our species and all things created.
Guide us to walk the paths of justice and peace.
Hear us as we groan, with the cosmos,
for liberation and new creation.
Amen.

The Gunning Fog readability index suggests 8.08 years of formal education is required to understand this prayer on a first reading, the Common Worship prayer requires 33.73 years.

Here's the information on how this prayer is a redub.

My collection of five prayers for the Eighth Sunday after Trinity Sunday are here.

You can also look at the full Index of Prayers.

The project runs from Advent 2012.

If you want to use the prayers, an acknowledgement of myself as author and, if there's space, the link to my blog would be much appreciated.
