Lord,
We thank you for life and the gifts of grace and mercy.
We thank you for the many blessings we take for granted.
Help us to see your reflection in others and ourselves.
Help us to focus on what unites us and not on what makes us different.
Our diversity is not a flaw.
It’s another piece of your master plan for our lives.
Thank you for breaking the mold and giving us the gifts that we have.
Teach us to be patient and rely on you during this season of unrest and uncertainty.
We are afraid. We are stressed. We are confused.
Some want to work but can’t.
Some of us feel left out.
Many are struggling with virtual learning.
We cannot fix it all. However, we know that you can and you will.
We know that sometimes your time table may not align with ours.
Help us to stand on your promises as we weather this difficult season.
In Your Wonderful name we pray, Amen.
