Praying from 1 Corinthians 11:9. Themes: Hierarchy, Purpose, Creation

Dear God,
We thank you for creating both man and woman in your image. Help us to understand that we were not created for ourselves, but for each other. May we always remember that we are here to serve and love one another, just as you have loved us. Give us the strength to put others before ourselves and to honor the unique roles you have given us. May we always seek to build each other up and bring glory to your name. Amen.
