Today I am praying for us as a spiritual family and for all of us as we are set in our own families – however they are constructed or we acknowledge them to be…
“Eternal God, our creator, you set us to live in families. We commend to your care all the homes where your people live. Keep them, we pray, free from bitterness, from the thirst for personal victory, and from pride in self. Fill them with faith, virtue, knowledge, moderation, patience, and godliness. Knit together in enduring affection those who have become one in marriage. Let children and parents have full respect for one another; and light the fire of kindliness among us all, that we may show affection for each other; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” (PCUSA Book of Common Worship, 823).
Peace +++
