Today’s Reflection: Morning Prayer — Lord, help me to live this day, quietly, easily. To lean upon Thy great strength, trustfully, restfully.

Today’s Reflection: Morning Prayer
In the storms of life, Lord,
comfort and reassure us
by your presence;
guide and steer us
by your wisdom;
hold us in the strength
of your love.
Inspire us to bring to you
all that troubles us, others,
and the world,
that we may find hope,
reconciliation, and peace.— Bill Braviner, Anglican Archdeacon of Halifax, U.K

Today’s Reflection: Prayer of Gratitude for the Beauty of Creation
God, our Creator of heaven and earth, how blessed we are to be surrounded by the beauty of your creation.
We lift our prayer of gratitude as we see the stars of heaven, and the beauty of the sunset.
We are amazed by the seas and waterways and all that are in them.
We are enchanted by the flowers and trees which are clothed by you.
We are awed by all the animals you created.
For the beauty of the earth, the mountains and valleys, the sun and the moon – we give you praise.
Amen. – Author Unknown

Today’s Reflection: What Jesus never said:
Feed the hungry only if they have papers.
Clothe the naked only if they’re from your country.
Welcome the stranger only if there’s zero risk.
Help the poor only if it’s convenient.
Love your neighbour only if they look like you. ― James Martin S.J.

Today’s Reflection: Lord,
You place people in our lives who lift us up.
We ask you to bless all those who encourage us
To follow you more closely.
And we ask that you help us
Encourage those we accompany
To know your love and your grace.
Amen. —Brian Kemper, SJ
