Beneath
O God,
Deliver us from taking people at face value. Don’t let us assume that
our first impressions are accurate.
Help us instead look beneath the surface so we can better understand
what’s really going on and who someone really is.
Help us take the time and make the effort to really get to know people
so we have the chance to get beneath the surface.
And once we do, give us empathy that grows out of love and compassion.
Amen.
