International Day of Persons with Disabilities

International Day of Persons with Disabilities

Reflection

“There is no greater disability in society than the inability to see a person as more.”
~ Robert M. Hensel

Prayer

God of all abilities,

You have gifted each of us with unique and wonderful abilities. Every person should be valued for being a beloved child of God, rather than for having the same talents and skills as everybody else. Help us to understand that the term 'disability' could be seen as 'other ability,' for we are all endowed with different talents granted by you. Guide us to see as you see and to celebrate the skills and talents of everyone. Amen.

Call to Action

Try to see as God sees today, recognizing the abilities of all people that cross in my path.
