~~ Renewal Prayer for 2024 ~~
🙏🏿🙏🏽🙏🙏🏻

Reconciling Lord, I turn to you asking for courage.
Today I have seen again the scars of racism.
I confess my awkward words, defending impulses, and retreating silence.
Strengthen my heart not to shrink before anger, disapproval, and fear.
Encourage my willingness to risk hearing, speaking, and living your truth.
May all of our particularities play a part in your creation of a new reality.
Use my small offerings in your work of healing and reconciliation.
Amen.
