Ultimately, it is the power of God that makes us one.
Each of us a mixture of splendid possibilities
and dismal limitations.
May we be filled with the joy of knowing that the One
who began a good work in
each of us will be faithful to complete it.

Father, we ask forgiveness and enlightenment when we condemn those we don't understand.
We ask forgiveness and guidance for assuming to know all their is to know about each other, for defining, confirming, limiting, labeling, conditioning, interpreting and oppressing each other.
We ask forgiveness for excluding, withholding, insisting and resisting the inclusiveness of your love.
Amen.

Help for Haiti Quake victims at - http://www.networkforgood.org/
In the face of the horrors that mankind and nature has visited on Haiti, many may ask the question where is God? The answer was found by those who offered praise and worship to God. The Haitian people praised God in the worst of circumstances. "Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus" (1 Thessalonians 5: 17-18).
It is in this landscape of darkness, a valley of death, enemies and persecution that the Good Shepherd comes to us and assures us; I am with you. We may not see him when we are blinded by the sorrows and tragedies of life but, God is with the people of Haiti.
The answer was found by those present in the darkness and rubble of the earthquakes aftermath with eyes fixed on Christ. ~ Rev. Tracey Christopher+, HH
