Prayer of Recognition

Prayer of Recognition

Lord, we ask you to open our eyes
that we may value and appreciate all people,
recognizing what we have in common
rather than focusing
on what our differences might be.
Inspire us to distinguish
between what is important
and what is not,
and open our minds and hearts
that we may always be people of good will
who bring life and joy to others.
Amen.
