Reflection

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit.”
~ Aristotle

Prayer

Just God,

Words, it is said, can be cheap. It can be easier to say the right thing than it is to do the right thing. Give us the strength to not merely speak words of justice and peace, of compassion and care. Help us to embody those words in the actions we take, the commitments we make, and the habits we form. Fill us with the courage to lead lives consistent with the words we speak. In God’s name we pray. Amen.

Call to Action

What one action can I take, or what one commitment can I make today, that might build ever stronger bonds between my words and actions?
