A blessing for humility

A blessing for humility, shared with OSC by Pastor Jenell on Sunday, August 25th.

—————————

May you be blessed with a humility that allows you to embrace the beauty of your own journey. 

To love deeply enough to venture into the unknown and walk in the pursuit of loving humanity so profoundly that it moves you to give your best and correct your worst. 

May you love the poor with a tender heart, fight for justice with unwavering courage, and honor your family with deep respect. 

In your failures and successes, may you find the grace to laugh at yourself and the wisdom to pat yourself on the back when you have succeeded in bringing joy to another.

Dear church, know that each step in the pursuit of humility brings you a better understanding of the reflection of the Divine in your own image. 

In all these things, may you draw nearer to the face of God.

May the peace of God be with you.

Amen.
