Reflection

“I do not believe there is a problem in this country or the world today which could not be settled if approached through the teaching of the Sermon on the Mount.” –Harry S. Truman

Prayer

All-wise God,

Give us courage each day to stand upon the wisdom we have learned from your example. And give us strength to follow the guidance you have set forth in your teachings, that we may see our world transformed. May we love our enemies and treat everyone the way we would want to be treated. May we give abundantly to all those who ask for our help. May we judge not, lest we be judged. May we keep our word and honor our promises and always seek to be salt and light to those around us. Let your goodness be reflected today as we try to live out your word and embody your love. Amen.
