Reflection

“It’s hard to see a halo when you’re looking for horns.” –Cullen Hightower

Prayer

Loving God,

Our eyes are not like yours. For you see us just as we are and somehow you love us, without exception. Yet so often we see each other and somehow allow distortions of bias and prejudice to lead us to look for the worst in each other. Heal us of such wayward looking, that we might see what you see in each one of our brothers and sisters. May we commit this day to look for the best in each other and to show our respect for the infinite gift of each life before us. Especially for those who cannot see it in themselves, may we show our admiration for the dignity we share together, as those made in your image. Amen.

Call to Action

Make a conscious commitment today to look for the good in every person I encounter.
