This is a prayer for those
who need
Legislate
posting the ten commandments
and the denominations that need
to
expel women
define “marriage”
in ways the devalue personhood
This is a prayer because
God melt the hearts
of those
who only have
one hardened
understanding of
scripture
God
humanity
God I pray that you melt
their hearts
God I pray that you
sing poetry to them
in their dreams
And show them
the mysteries of the heavens
And
tell them
that it is
ok
not to have a quick
answer
and solution
I pray for children that ask awkward
questions
I pray for elders
with mystical wisdom
I pray for animals
with unspoken relatedness
This is a prayer
for all parts of faith
that are not words
etched in stone
But people
beautifully alive
in community
eating, dancing
laughing in the mystery of faith
this is my prayer
for all those who are stuck
in the “right” Christianity today
