Twentieth Sunday after Trinity Sunday Collect (Redub)

God the giver of all life,
who sustains the cosmos:
may your church draw water from the well of your Spirit.
May your people eagerly use your gifts
so we can share with the whole creation
the good news of Christ’s rescue in this life,
and the joys of eternal life in the new creation.
Amen.

The Gunning Fog readability index suggests 12.45 years of formal education is required to understand this prayer on a first reading, the Common Worship prayer requires 30.3 years.

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

My collection of five prayers for the Twentieth 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.
