A #heartbeatprayer from the Diocese of Ottawa

 

Loving God,

We thank you for the witness of those who have gone before us. Help us to be true to our rich inheritance even as we grow and evolve according to your will.

We thank you for choosing us to be your friends, known and loved individually and unconditionally. May we be obedient to your command by sharing that same love and befriending all.

We thank you for freeing us from past heartaches and future concerns. Strengthen us to be your hands and heart in the world, striving to bring justice and healing to all of creation including our precious planet.
