A Prayer to honor Indigenous Peoples Month
|
|
Let me not look away, O God, from any truth I should see. Even if it is difficult, let me face the reality in which I live. I do not want to live inside a cosseted dream, imagining I am the one who is always right, or believing only what I want to hear. Help me to see the world through other eyes, to listen to voices distant and different, to educate myself to the feelings of those with whom I think I have nothing in common. Break the shell of my indifference. Draw me out of my prejudices and show me your wide variety. Let me not look away. Amen

|
|
|
This week's reflection on a favorite Bible verse is by Vestry member Dr. Leah Cunningham. And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love.1 Corinthians 13:13 To start, this Bible verse represents something complete in itself and unadulterated . The three tenets of faith, hope, and love are pure. They come from the …
