A Community Prayer for Courage

Abba, forgive us for not listening to your voice.  We are yours, grant us the courage to live in that reality.  May we take bold risks in your name and have the strength of heart to hope in you.  Teach us to love each other in a manner we currently do not understand, to be foolish for you. 


Be our God and may we be your people.  


Guard us from ourselves and the false demands of others. Help us to know our inheritance as your sons and daughters. May we find our worth in you. May we find contentment in you and may we cease striving after these things everywhere else.  Give us eyes to see you in the least of these our brothers and sisters. Lord, have mercy on us. Amen.
