Reflection

“Master, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.” –John 6:68

Prayer

God of life,

It is easy for us to dwell on the disparaging words spoken against us. Whether we hear them as kids, young adults, or later in life, they wound and darken our hearts in so many ways. Yet we believe and have seen that you have come into our lives so we might have life and have it abundantly. Heal us, then, from hurtful words of the past, and make us now to live in the light and the truth of your words of life. Help us be willing to share words of life with others in need. Amen.

Call to Action

Practice using my words with care and concern today, “speaking life” to those in need.
