Reflection

“Gratitude helps you to grow and expand; gratitude brings joy and laughter into your life and into the lives of all those around you.” ~ Eileen Caddy

Prayer

God of all hopefulness, these extraordinary times have called out extraordinary acts of kindness, goodness, compassion, and sacrifice. But these times have also helped us recognize the kindness and compassion so often on display every day in ordinary times. Fill our hearts with gratitude for the many people whose bravery and goodness have been thrust into the spotlight by the times through which we pass. And help us to be more appreciative of the common, everyday acts of decency and compassion that make our world and our lives better. With profound gratitude, we pray. Amen.
