A Prayer for Monday, September 23, 2013

Growth

O God,

By the power of your Spirit and your grace, help us to grow this week toward being more the kind of people that Jesus showed us and told us we should be.

Help us to grow toward being people who confront hate with love, who pursue reconciliation rather than division, and who prefer forgiveness to vengeance.

Growth toward such being and doing is possible only by your Spirit and grace, so move us toward greater reliance on them.

Amen.
