Whatever Our Shape, Abilities, or Struggles

We are created by God!
We gather assured of God’s love and dream for humanity.

We are created in God’s image.
We gather assured that whatever our shape, our abilities, or our struggles, we reflect the image of God.

Our mental or physical characteristics are never punishment for sin. Never. God created each of us out of love and hope.
Within you, within me, within all people, the essence of God can be found.

Let us pray:
Creating One, we are humbled by your confidence in us. Encourage us as we strive to manifest who you dream we can be. Amen.
