Daily Reflections
Prayer
God of goodness and justice, though we are passing through a dark valley in our history, we trust in your presence and goodness. Help us to be particularly mindful of all those who work each day to keep us safe and secure. In a special way, we pray for the women and men of Bon Secours Mercy Health who risk their lives daily to create a safer and healthier world. Hear us as we call to you and walk with us as we continue along this challenging path. We pray in your name. Amen.
God of compassion, thank you for the gift of our shared ministry. Fill our hearts and minds with your Holy Spirit. Inspire us through the example of humble and dedicated women and men throughout the ages. Open our eyes that we might see in others your presence. Open our hearts that we might reach out in love to all people, especially people who are poor and marginalized. We pray as we live, in your name. Amen.
Prayer
Gracious God, each day the news confronts us with the challenges we face as individuals and as communities. Each day, we face the temptation to give in to our fears, anxieties, and mistrust. Each day, we come to you that you might support us in the face of such temptations. Encourage us to be people of hope and increase our trust in the goodness of our shared future. We pray in your name. Amen.
