Reflection

“Prayer is the raising up of the mind to God or a petitioning of God for what is fitting.”
-St. John Damascene

Prayer

Holy Spirit,

There is so much in our world today for which we need to pray: world peace, clean environment, love for others, healing of illnesses.  Knowing that you hear our prayers, guide us to be faithful in praying for others and for ourselves, that we might have strength to continue each day with hope in our hearts and love in our actions. We pray in the spirit of love, Amen.

Call to Action

Make prayer a part of my day today for a need that speaks to my heart and that helps someone
in need.
