Dear God, You are always in our future, beckoning us toward a reign of justice we are not sure we want to reach. We think of the things that are past and wish you would give us, again, that with which we were comfortable. Thank you for the assurance that you are always with us as we make those difficult decisions that as Christians we must make for the sake of love and justice. Give us also the courage to follow your leading into the future, striving always to love as you have loved. In your name we pray. Amen
