God, the maker of all, surround us like mountains, secure
in love.
Bless the leaders of this world, of nations and cities,
with wisdom
Help us to listen before speaking; may we assume good
intentions.
(Oh, wouldn’t that be wonderful to not only assume, but
to act with good intentions?)
Help us to love our neighbor as we love ourselves.
God, maker of all, in the heart of Jerusalem reside your
people
People of many faiths, all giving praise to you. Be with
the leaders
Of Churches and other faiths, reminding us of our common
love in God.
Help us to love our neighbor as we love ourselves.
God, maker of all, be with those who are suffering from
Illness, poverty, hunger, injustice, abuse, and all the
ways we fail
To care for others. Help us to respond to the broken
places
Help us to love our neighbor as ourselves.
God, maker of all, be with those who have died.
Surround them with your peace and love. Sustain
Those who love and care for the dying, fill them with
peace.
Help us to love our neighbors as ourselves.
In all we do, O God, help us to deepen our faith.
Help us to work on your behalf, that our words may have
action.
Help us be your hands and heart in the world.
Help us to love you and love our neighbors, too.
Amen.
