Prayer Offered for March 6, 2025

So we begin today with a little poem called “Lessons” by Rod McKuen:

In imitating Christ

we mustn’t once forget

he seldom went alone.

His friends were those

who needed friends themselves.

A teacher, he was often taught

and not just by his father

but by the flock he shepherded

from torment into love.

He was the wisest of his wise men.

That didn’t come by chance—

It came from caring.

So Gracious God, we thank You today for the caring that You have placed in our hearts for our brothers and sisters. Thank You for our families and friends who give us the space to do Your work, and who support us in our joyful and difficult days. And help us to be grateful for the voices that challenge us—challenge us to go deeper into the reasons for and the consequences of our decisions. May we continue to incarnate Your vision in our world.—AMEN.
