This month's theme:
This summer the theme is "Love one another." How does that theme relate to the LGBTQQI Community? Love is always being shared in our community. However the common experience has been the lack of acceptance from family members and members of similar faith. That's where our community comes in! And we know that God is like a close friend to all!
What we are praying for:
So we pray that God brings healing and reconciliation between family members and when that does not happen, that God bring healing to those in the community who suffer from the rejection and that they find family among friends around them.
Scriptures:
1John 4:11-13. We know we are of God because we have God's love in our hearts.
1John 4:7,8. If we love we know God because God is love.
John 13:34. Jesus commanded us to love one another.
Romans 13: 8,10. If you love your neighbour, you will fulfil the requirements of God's law. Love does no wrong to anyone, so love satisfies all of God's requirements.
Galatians 5: 13-15. For the whole law can be summed up in this one command: "Love your neighbour as yourself."
Let's build up our great community for everyone's sake! We will all benefit and the world will see that we are born of God!
I dedicate this month's prayer blog to
my sister, Sheila, who was not only my sister,
See you in the morning Sheila!
