Living Faith

In the light of Jesus’ call, we stand, 
To live our faith with heart and hand. 
Embody love, mercy, and grace, 
Reflecting God’s kingdom in every place.

Rise above the urge to retaliate, 
Choose selflessness over selfish fate. 
Acts of kindness, pure and true, 
Not for reward, but because it’s due.

Consider how our words and deeds, 
Affect the hearts and meet the needs. 
With kindness, respect, and gentle care, 
In every action, everywhere.

When conflict comes, choose to forgive, 
In peace and love, let us live. 
True love extends beyond the known, 
To every heart, let kindness be shown.

Compassion for all, near and far, 
Reflecting God’s love, like a shining star. 
In every moment, let us strive, 
To keep Jesus’ teachings alive.

Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart find favor before you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. - Psalm 19:15

Prayer

What lies within this fragile heart that beats and bleeds and breaks apart. What secrets does it hold inside that I have tried so hard to hide. What dreams and hopes and fears and doubts that fill my mind and make me shout. What passions and desires and joys and pains that stir my soul and course my veins. What words and thoughts and feelings and deeds that shape my life and guide my needs. What truths and lies and rights and wrongs that form my voice and sing my songs. What is this heart that you can see that only you can set me free. What is this heart that I conceal that only you can make me reveal.
