“We tend to live up to our expectations.” –Earl Nightingale

Prayer

Empowering God,

We all know the difference between barely holding on for survival and truly thriving in the way we were made to thrive. For colleagues and associates who are confronting this day with low expectations, we ask you to encourage their spirits from the inside out and lift their sights once again. Regardless of the team on which we serve or the specifics of role and function, may we all raise our expectations today about what is possible through your power and strength, especially as we strive to advance your cause of healing compassion in the lives of those we encounter. Amen.

Call to Action

Take time today to reflect on my sense of calling and ministry. Is it time to raise my expectations?
