Today’s Reflection: Blessed are you, Lord God of the universe,
who give us peace to overcome our fear,
who have redeemed us from our way of being distant from you,
who have called us by name,
and who have thus claimed us as your beloved.

Open our eyes, Lord, help us to see as you;
open our hands, Lord, help us to reach out as you,
open our hearts, Lord, help us to love as you. —Fr. Glen Chun, SJ
