Marinate us













You are like a marinade -
Making us better than what we are.

Tenderize our tough spots:
     Break down our defenses,
     Enable us to love even those with whom we disagree,
     Make us less judgmental of others.
Season us in ways
     That make it possible
     For others to get a taste
     Of you in us.
    
You change us for the better.
Marinate us!


[Other prayers starting with "M:" Mark us, mend us, mulch us, mobilize us...others?!]
