Lord Jesus,
Let me see the radiance of your face in the other person who is different than I am
Help me overcome my own bias and prejudices rather than seeing them only in the face of another
Hold me so close to your heart that I can hear the hearts of others beating around me
Even if the beauty fades and the flower withers, let me never lose hope or not feel your love
How can I love my neighbor I do see if I don't love my neighbor who I can see?
I let go of all things to be gripped by your grace
I lose myself in Christ so that I can be one with all in Christ
This wounded world is looking for one gentle embrace to invite others in
Grant me the courage to be that one person
Amen
