Forgive us, Gracious God, for the idolatry that distorts our reality.
Forgive us for how it has allowed us to shrug off & allow talk about America’s exceptionalism above all others, especially now when one germ is showing how in so many ways we are equal, not exceptional.
Forgive us for how it has allowed us to shrug off & allow talk about America’s exceptionalism above all others, especially now when one germ is showing how in so many ways we are equal, not exceptional.
Forgive us for trying to make America great without recognizing that greatness is rooted in service to humanity, not slogans filled with narcissism.
Forgive us, oh God, for accepting the idolatry, which when pushed to its conclusion, is successful in separating us from other nations we need, people we need & help we need.
Save us, search us & shake us until we are united to your beloved community by answering the prayer of God that we might be “ONE.” Amen.
