You remind us, O God, that how we treat the poor and needy when we are wealthy is a sign of our character.  When we take the time to give the best of what we have to others, physically or metephorically, we are being faithful to God and serving him as we are called.  WeContinue reading “Prayer for September 21, 2025”

Let me listen this day, Loving God, so that I may hear what I am meant to hear. Help me to wait to speak until I have something to say that will contribute whatever we are talking about.  May I speak words that are affirming and not divisive.

May we find a way to talk to each other, O God.  Let us see those with whom we differ as beloved children of God.  May we look for common ground and not let our differences be our focus. Allow us move once again to a time when someone could agree to disagree.  Help usContinue reading “Prayer for September 12, 2025”

On this 24th anniversary of 911 we wake up to stories of death by violence from yesterday.  We had two students in Colorado, and a political activist killed by gun violence and I am tired, O God.  Exhausted by the reality that we put our desire to have weapons that kill over the lives ofContinue reading “Prayer for September 11, 2025”

This day is filled with opportunities and distractions, O God.  Help me to focus on the important things that I hope to accomplish, and to be available to those who need my help or support.  Let me be open to new ideas and ready to embrace those ideas to let them grow into what theyContinue reading “Prayer for September 10, 2025”
