Reflection

“You can preach a better sermon with your life than with your lips.” –Oliver Goldsmith

Prayer

Living God,

Whether we are conscious of it or not, the ways in which we live our lives are the loudest expressions of what we really believe and value. Sometimes it’s hard to stay true, but we ask for the courage to practice a deeper integrity in all that we say and do. Empower especially those caregivers serving directly the neighbors among us who are especially vulnerable. May their compassionate presence on behalf of those in need express your very own heart for the world, that comfort and peace will flow more freely among us. Amen.

Call to Action

Be more conscientious about the way I do or do not reveal my most basic values and convictions through the concrete actions I choose to perform today.
