Today’s Reflection: Loving God, You hear the cry of each of your children, and especially those who are poor and suffering.
We pray that we too might hear the cries of people in need:
The family crying out for food …
The migrant child crying out for his mother …
The youth crying out for education …
The farmer crying out for rains for his harvest ….
The trafficked and abused, crying out for freedom …
All of who are poor and vulnerable, crying out for help …
Lord, open our hearts that we may hear the cries of the poor as you do and respond as your hands and feet on earth. – Prayer for the Second World Day of the Poor.
