Lord, just who is my neighbor?
You have called us to love you,
And that is understandable.
You have called us to love our neighbor,
And we want to define who that is.
But, you did not define it.
I do not think it was an oversight.
Our neighbors are all other created in your image.
In fact, they are more than neighbors, they are family.
And you want us to love them as we do ourselves.
Help us to take your command seriously,
And help us to try to live it.
Amen.
