A Prayer for Thursday, August 4, 2016

Insight

O God,

Give us insight.

Give us insight

into other people’s experiences,

into the ways the universe works,

into the historical, social, and psychological
forces that shape events and perspectives,

into the, motivations, assumptions,
needs, and biases that drive us, and

into your great mercy, grace, and love.


In short, give us insight into life.


Then, help us use those insights to live

with understanding,
with humility, 
with compassion, and
with grace.


Amen.
