Reflection

“The life I touch for good or ill will touch another life, and that in turn another, until who knows where the trembling stops or in what far place my touch will be felt.” –Frederick Buechner

Prayer

God of connections,

May your human family on earth be reminded today and each day that we are truly bonded together. As one people made in your image, we share a common origin and a common destiny. And so for good or for ill, our actions always have an impact beyond us, affecting others far and wide. Give us grace to see this truth in all its dynamism, that we might live into it conscientiously. Help us choose to become a blessing to others, knowing that every action or word will make an impact upon the quality of life we are sharing together. Amen.

Call to Action

Share deliberate blessings with those around me today. Have strength to believe in the ripple effect of my actions and words.
