Reflection
“I sought to hear the voice of God and climbed the topmost steeple, but God declared: ‘Go down again - I dwell among the people.’” ~John Henry Newman
Prayer
God in all,
Throughout our day, we encounter Your image reflected in every person we see, hear, or even think of, yet so often we miss the chance to recognize Your presence. You dwell within all people, calling us to love each person as we love You. Help us to pause, take notice, and realize that each person in our lives is one of Your beloved children, and through them, You reside among us. With grateful hearts, we pray. Amen.
Call to Action
Take a few moments today and truly look at those around me. Realize that something precious of God’s own heart is made present through them.
