Here’s a prayer from
Rev. Mindi, based on Matthew 5:43-48, where Jesus teaches about loving our
enemies.
Prayer
(inspired by Matthew 5: 43-48)
Holy Jesus,
You call us into a
life that others have told us is easy, but it is not.
You challenge us to
forgive, to love our enemies,
to bless those who
curse us.
We want the easy
way,
but You have given
us the hard path.
Grant us the
patience and endurance to journey with You,
to allow ourselves
at times to stumble,
to live into the
hard way
so that we might
fully experience
Your love, grace and
peace in this world,
by becoming a people
full of love and grace
and forgiving
others.
In Your name we
pray. Amen.
