Reflection

“The secret of change is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old, but on building the new.” ~ Socrates

Prayer

God of transforming love, it has been nearly a month since we started a new year. For those who make resolutions, many have probably already abandoned their efforts to change certain aspects of their lives. Open our hearts and minds to the movement of your Holy Spirit, that we may renew our commitment to change, allowing ourselves to let go of the old and feeling energized to embrace the new. Help us to be open to the change that improves the quality of our lives and the goodness of our world. In God’s name, we pray. Amen.

Call to Action

Take time today to identify an aspect of my life that needs to change and what I must do to promote and support that change.
