Reflection

“Love is divine only and difficult always. If you think it is easy you are a fool. If you think it is natural you are blind. It is a learned application without reason or motive except that it is God.”
--Toni Morrison

Prayer

Loving God,

Choosing to love is hard! It shakes our reason and tests our motives and pulls us beyond all comfort. For we find it so easy to love when we get a return; but to love selflessly and purely for the good of the other is truly divine. Inspire us to pursue such a supernatural calling—to go beyond calculation and self-interest in the way we treat others. In all our relationships, at work and at home and all in between, fill our hearts with your living love. For the life of the world, we pray. Amen.
