Prayer for Affirming Grace

Holy One of boundless love,

You who knit us together in all our beautiful diversity —We come before You just as we are: radiant, queer, beloved.

Thank You for grace that knows no borders,

That calls us by name,

That wraps us in welcome when the world turns cold.

Your grace does not ask us to shrink, hide, or apologize.

It invites us to live fully, freely, and fearlessly.

Bless every queer heart that has been told they are too much or not enough.

Remind us that Your image lives in every shade of skin, every gender expression, every orientation, every body.

When the voices of shame try to speak louder than Your love,quiet them with the truth:

That we are already enough. Already chosen. Already embraced.

Let us be bearers of that grace —Affirming others as You affirm us,

Creating spaces of belonging,

And walking boldly in the freedom of our belovedness.

Amen
