Daily Reflections
Prayer
Lord of all, the holiday season this year will be unlike any other we have experienced. Yet, thanks to technology, there will still be opportunities to be with family. Fill our hearts with gratitude for our families. Inspire us to find safe ways to be together and to strengthen the bonds that unite us. May we be mindful of the many who suffer because of the pandemic and thankful for the many working to keep us heathy and safe. With trust in you, we pray. Amen.
Prayer
Loving Lord, we continue to live in the midst of a global pandemic. Daily reports on cases and deaths, mask wearing and social distancing, have for many become the new normal. Taking the reality and the consequences of COVID-19 for granted, we can sometimes forget that so many still sacrifice on a daily basis to keep us safe and healthy. Stir within our hearts a spirit of gratitude for those who risk their lives to advance our safety and security. Protect them in your love and guide their efforts. Amen.
