Love

Love...It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails...And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. 1 Corinthians 13:7-8a, 1 John 4:16

Yes, O Lord you are good and your love endures forever. No amount of sin can separate the humble and repentant from your grace. You call, you claim, you send us in your love to be - your love, your witness in the world. From the adorned pulpits to the stench of the prison cell, your word is unchanging, a fount of hope to all, for all, with all.

In your grace, most merciful Lord, free us from useless fault-finding and point-proving that others will see and know in us the beauty of a soul that is at peace in the grip of your eternal love.

Accept and consecrate this prayer today, in this hour, for your glory, in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit…
