We pray The Lord's Prayer "Thy will be done,"
but we live the Sinatra doctrine "I did it My Way."
We kneel before the altar of "Have Thine Own Way, Lord,"
but our footsteps march to the beat of Burger King Theology's trumpeting anthem "Have it YOUR way."
We mouth sacred words of surrender,
yet our actions scream defiance as we crown ourselves sovereign.
We show our true faith by the way we live.

Today we pray for all displaced people. Christ, you know what it’s like to be a refugee. We ask that you would comfort those who have fled, and we pray that they experience hospitality and welcome.

In a matter of days, the Supreme Court criminalized homelessness and granted immunity for those who commit crimes in the White House.
It reminds me of the words of brother Bryan Stevenson: “The system treats you better if you are rich & guilty than if you are poor & innocent.”
UK communities want to share the love, and not just on Valentine's Day ❤️
