For Honoring Diverse Bodies

God of Bodies, we thank you for the vast variety of gifts and abilities you have given to each of us.

For the ways that the color of our skin, muscle tones, and movements all differ and express your goodness.

You loved bodies so much that you joined us in body through Jesus Christ, who shows us how to live with Divine love and mercy at the center of all our being and doing.

Help us trust you are with us. Help us to offer respect and dignity to all bodies, and to love ourselves and each other, as you love us. 
Amen
