MAY-ACCEPTANCE
God wants us to make friends with everyone no matter how different they may look of act.
OUR DAILY PRAYER FOR MAY: ACEPTANCE
Let us pray...for the virtue of acceptance-the strength to trust that God is at work in everyone's life despite what we think.
AMEN
An accepting person is...
willing to treat everybody as a member of a group
non-judgemental
welcoming to those different than himself-herself
loving and happy with who he-she is
The virtue of ACCEPTANCE means we accept ourselves and others just the way we are. God created all of us in His image, and God does not make mistakes. Being part of Gods family means that we love and welcome everyone just the way Jesus did. Sometimes we find ourselves in situations where it is easier to follow the crowd than to stand up for what we know is right. However, Jesus wants us to accept everyone even when it is hard.
If one member suffers, all suffer together with it; if one member is honoured, all rejoice together with it. Now you are the body of Christ and individually member of it.
1 Cor. 12:26-27
God does not love us because we are valuable. We are valuable because god loves us.
Martin Luther King
CAN YOU REMEMBER A TIME YOU FELT UNACCEPTED. HOW DID THAT MAKE YOU FEEL?
