Prayer:
Guide us, Spirit of wisdom,
as we pause to reflect on the values that shape our lives.
May we hold fast to what is true,
walk with compassion toward others,
seek justice with courage,
and live with integrity in all we do.
When our choices feel uncertain,
remind us of the principles that ground us.
When the path feels heavy,
strengthen us to act with kindness, honesty, and respect.
Let our values not be words alone,
but the compass that directs our steps each day.
Amen.
Questions:
Are there things that we put more highly than God?
Are we willing to change things in order to help more know God in their lives?
What should the values of this church be?
