Reflection

“Great works are performed not by strength but by perseverance.”
~ Samuel Johnson

Prayer

Gracious God, this year has been challenging for us all. Some may be suffering from financial difficulties, others may be struggling emotionally and psychologically due to social isolation, still others suffer from the coronavirus itself, while others mourn the loss of loved ones. Fill us with your love, O Lord, that we might be filled with the persistence and perseverance needed to confront the challenges we face and maintain our hope for a better tomorrow. With trust, we pray. Amen.
