A prayer for how I err
Help me remember, God:
you are not a doctrine,
you are not a denomination,
you are not anger,
you are not hate,
you are not violation and violence,
you are love.
As I live, God, I
I know I will fall short.
I will err.
Guide me so that when I err, I do so
on the side of welcome,
on the side of inclusion,
on the side of justice and mercy,
on the side of equity,
on the side of grace
on the side of love.
I pray in the name of Jesus.
Amen.

An inadequate prayer in the face of tragedy in the Itaewon area of Seoul
God –
our minds stagger,
our hearts hurt,
our spirits sink
as we hear the news
of tragedy unimaginable
in the Itaewon area of Seoul.
Understanding falters,
words prove inadequate
and still we turn to you in prayer.
Comfort your children who grieve
for loved ones who died.
Work healing in your children
who are injured.
Support first responders,
medical personnel, and all who
provide care.
Guide the people of Itaewon,
of the Republic of Korea,
of the world,
as our spirits rage in anger,
and our minds flounder to process
to find appropriate responses.
Even in this time of profound grief,
perhaps especially in this time of profound grief,
help everyone – all your children – wherever we might be,
help us to love.
Amen.

A prayer after thirty minutes on the treadmill
On nights when
Oreos cookies and Snickers candy bars
(and whatever other sweet snacks
may be on sale)
mightily call us,
we thank you God
for your gentle, forceful Holy Spirit
who nudges us to the gym
and meets us on the treadmill.
We thank you for
family and friends
who affirm and support
our response to the Holy Spirit’s work.
May we listen ever more intently
to your Holy Spirit
who calls us to care for one another,
to care for creation,
and to care four ourselves.
May we listen
and may we respond more faithfully,
we pray in Jesus’ name.
Amen.
