Lenten Devotional by Dawn Sorensen
March 5, 2017
In this church,
we recognize kin, God’s family, we rely on each other
Here you will find healing
Here you do not have to be afraid
we will protect you,
you will be heard,
you will be seen,
you will find strength to protect others.
In this church,
We believe in the insurgency of Love
Here you will be forgiven, you will be loved anyway
We will accept you just as you are, imperfections and all
you will give hope,
you will be fed,
you will never be alone.
In this church,
We don’t just believe in God, we encounter God
We ask God for help, we feel the spirit
you will find God,
you will feel the spirit
you will find your own tender heart.
In this church,
We hold the broken pieces together, with God’s help
We make mistakes, and we acknowledge human imperfection
you will find forgiveness
you will make peace
you will live your purpose.
In this church,
We transcend principalities and powers
We know Love is the answer
you will know Love.
—May it be so.
