Prayer of the Month: February

February: The Heart of Transfiguration

Divine Love, in this season where we transition toward the mountain of Transfiguration, remind us that we are precious in your sight. As we celebrate love, let it not be a selfish or narrow love. Soften the hearts hardened by political strife. Teach us that our "neighbor" includes the one whose opinions frustrate us. We are all your handiwork. Let your light transform our irritability into patience and our suspicion into hospitality. May our homes be sanctuaries where every guest feels the warmth of your embrace and the dignity of your friendship. Amen.
