A Prayer 1

Loving God, thank you for reminding me every day that you do

love me.  But you also remind me that you love all other people,

too.  You have told me that it does not matter what people

look like, who they are or what they believe.  You told me

that you still claim them as your children, and you love all

of them.  You have said again and again that there is no one

who is outside of your love.  Please keep reminding me until

it is so much a part of me that there is no one who I can hate,  

for I do not want to ever do anything that is outside of what

you want. AMEN

Dear God, I'm sorry, but I'm not doing as well as I should. I

there are still some people who I would like to

hate, or at least think that you do not love them. These people

think too differently than I do, and I cannot handle that.

Remind me again that those who are different in any way are

still your children, created by you. Help me always to remember

that your love cannot be restricted to just some people, but

is inclusive of all. Stay always near me, and help me to learn

your love. AMEN
