Love

Love is patient; 

love is kind; 

love is not envious 

or boastful 

or arrogant 

or rude.

It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful.

(1 Corinthians 13:4-5 (NRSV))

Harmony

Lord of Heaven and Earth, help us to live in harmony with nature and neighbor.

Help us kneel in your soil and till and tend the garden of community with as much care as we might give to our own “heirloom” tomatoes.
(Moravian Daily Texts - 2013, 5 July)

Motivations

Motivations

God, today, may I excuse rather than accuse the people around me 

when I don't know their motivations. 

Let me see everyone through Your kind eyes.
