The 7 UP's Prayer
"Do Unto Others"
Dear God, as we try to "Do Unto Others," hopefully we search for the truth in our own
lives to share with others in some manner. Maybe sometimes we start to judge rather than
help and when we do we begin to lose the truth and when we stop judging we are shown
the truth. Oh, Awesome God, we admit that sometimes we try to put you in a box so we
can understand you. When we realize that other people see you differently than we do,
we are forced to take you out of that stifling box to confront you in all your complexity
(or simplicity). Your love for us maybe simple, but your power is not. Help us to be
open to others understanding of you. May we be clear about our own beliefs but open to
learn more about you through other's understanding of You. Even though we are more
comfortable with you in the box we have made, we realize that you are beyond our
comprehension. You have told us that Your Thoughts are not our thoughts, nor are Your
Ways our ways. You are truly an awesome God, and we kneel before you in gratitude for
how you work in our lives. Let us better demonstrate the Love of Christ within each of us.
Amen.
