Reflection

“My sacrifice, O God, is a contrite spirit; a heart contrite and humbled, O God, you will not spurn.” –Psalm 51:19

Prayer

God of the humble,

Trusting in your presence to comfort and guide, we pray for all those who are brokenhearted today. Send us as agents of your compassion to them, that we might lift them in spirit as much as provide concrete help for the physical ailments or emotional traumas they may be experiencing. Let humility be our guide as we extend your love and mercy to all those humbled already by life’s many challenges. Amen.
