Soft Eyes Blessing
“And all the believers met together constantly,
and shared everything they had….” Acts 2:44
may the god who is community
be with us as we seek to be a community
may god bless our dreams
and may god shatter our dreams
may god help us to be real
and to find depth in weakness and brokenness
may god help us to face and grow through conflict
rather than pretend by being nice
may we look at each other through soft eyes
and truly respect each other as human beings
may god help us let go of control
and the need to fix one another
may god help us discover we are needy in our own souls
and give attention to our own hearts
may god grant us the gift of an extraordinary love
that flows from the heart of god
that covers a multitude of wrongs
