Today’s Reflection: Never Give Up
No matter what is going on, never give up.
Develop the heart. Too much energy in your country is spent developing the mind instead of the heart.
Be compassionate, not just to your friends, but to everyone.
Work for peace in your heart and in the world. Work for peace and I say again, never give up.
No matter what is happening, no matter what is going on around you, never give up — Attributed to His Holiness, the XIV Dalai Lama

Today’s Reflection: Holy Week invites you to take your suffering and give it a sense of redemption; accept the cross; embrace it as Christ did; do not be passive, but with love build a civilization of freedom and love. — St. Oscar Romero, Palm Sunday homily, 1978

Today’s Reflection: Prayer
Lord,
As we draw closer to Holy Week,
we hear you say, “I AM,”
we see you walking boldly toward the cross.
You say and do these things, not with fear, but with love and truth.
Give me that same courage,
to speak honestly, act justly, and love deeply.
Help me not to turn away from the hard things,
but to meet them with a holy boldness.
Amen —Jackie Schulte

Today’s Reflection: Lord, you are my Master Gardener.
Water my being with your love and your grace
And cultivate patience within me when I expect rapid growth.
Send me rays of Son-light so that I may flourish
And produce much good fruit.
Prune away my desire for perfection
And shape me into the kind of good tree you want me to be.
May I be grateful for the unique gifts you have given me
and share them with those I meet today. —Diane Amento Owens
