Daily Reading for September 30 • The Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost
Lord, shall we not bring these gifts to Your Service?
Shall we not bring to Your service all our powers
For life, for dignity, grace and order,
And intellectual pleasures of the senses?
The Lord who created must wish us to create
And employ our creation again in His service
Which is already His service in creating.
From The Rock by T. S. Eliot, in Collected Poems 1909-1962 (Faber and Faber).
