“Even if it’s a little thing, do something for those who have need of help, something for which you get no pay but the privilege of doing it.” –Albert Schweitzer

Prayer

Spirit of service,

For a number of reasons, there will be people today that we work hard to help and yet they will offer little by way of gratitude or thanks. Make us okay with that. Even more, help us to cultivate your heart of compassion for all those we serve, so that we might be the ones feeling grateful, that we are in a position to be able to bless those that can do nothing in return for us. Empower us by your own spirit of service, so we can act as your hands and feet and be especially attentive to those who are poor, dying, and underserved. Amen.

Call to Action

Practice gratitude today, for the privilege of being able to serve someone in need.
