Reflection
“No one is useless in this world who lightens the burden of another.”
~ Charles Dickens
Prayer
Eternal God, too often in our society we celebrate the grand, the great, and the famous. Such emphasis can tempt us to undervalue our own contribution and significance. Yet, we know it is more often in the simple, the ordinary, and the everyday through which people’s lives are changed and transformed. Strengthen us today to believe in, and act upon, our ability to contribute to the lives of others in simple and ordinary ways. In confidence, we pray. Amen.
Call to Action
Take one action or make one commitment that will help to lighten the burdens of those with whom I come in contact today.
