Love help us bless the ones in trouble today - the children who believe they are less than worthless, the adults too afraid to flee the violence they endure, the ones targeted for harassment and other ill use, the ones who are fighting despair or dissolution. Love help us bless these ones, by remembering that their need is our need. Love help us bless these ones by being present, though we have own troubles, though we may be among these named, let us be present and help each other hold steady and hold on. Love help us be with the children who believe they are less than worthless, and together name their gifts and assure them of their loveability and worthiness. Love help us be with the adults too afraid to flee the violence they endure, and together make a way of survival and the true love and peace that each and all of us are worthy of having. Love help us be with the ones targeted for harassment and other ill use, and together reach safe refuge and then find ways to create safety and respect for everyone. Love help us be with the ones fighting despair or dissolution, and together bear up and bear on for another day, creating more hope and discovering together how to bless this world. Love you call us through our vulnerability. Vulnerable as we are, may we risk faithfully to bless, be present, and find the hopeful way forward. Amen.
