God, who created us
to be in loving and nurturing families,
Hear my prayer.
I want to play my part
in my city, in my country, in my world...
Then I remember, I want to play my part
as your person in your places.
Guide me, as I make your love and forgiveness known,
in thought and word and deed.
Teach me to be a blessing to others,
Rather than an obstacle to your grace.
When I see someone unlike me,
may I not cross to the other side.
When I see lovers who could be friends,
may I greet them with an encouraging word.
When I am tempted to criticize or correct,
let me be aware of what is blurring my vision.
Trinity God,
who lives in the strangest relationship I've every heard of,
Bless us all with life-giving relationships.
Amen
