Reflection

“Compassion will cure more sins than condemnation.” –Henry Ward Beecher

Prayer

God of compassion,

In a culture so prone to judgment and condemnation, empower us to stand up as champions of compassion, committed to seeing others through your eyes of mercy. Grant us wisdom to discern the needs around us and the courage to act with kindness and empathy, following the example of your Son, Jesus Christ. In our thoughts, words, and deeds, may we mirror your boundless love for all people, doing all that we can to heal wounds and overcome divisions. With gratitude for the mission we share, extending your compassionate ministry today, we pray. Amen.

Call to Action
