Goodness

Reflection

“Be the reason someone believes in the goodness of people.” ~ Karen Salmansohn

Prayer

Almighty God, we all need to be reminded from time to time of the fundamental goodness of people. The divisions in our nation sometimes encourage us to forget the good people who populate our communities. Grant us the strength to live in a way that helps others remember and believe in the goodness of people. May you help to heal our divided nation through our commitment to seeing the good in others and striving to be good in what we say, what we do, and who we are. We pray in your name. Amen.
