God, I know you are out there, waiting to break my heart open through service to your people. Show me how to find you in them, to open my heart and hands to feel and to touch, to laugh and to cry with your chosen ones, the poor, who carry with them direct pathways to your loving heart. Give me a taste for service so that I too might desire more and more. Amen. — Author unknown

Today’s Reflection: Help Me Learn To Read My Heart
Almighty God, author of my life, help me learn to read what you have written on my heart. Give me discerning eyes and an untiring spirit to look within me in order to understand how to reach outside of me. And once I have begun to read you aright, give me the generosity to help others to read you, to sound you out one letter, one word of radical giving at a time.—Author Unknown

Today’s Reflection: Begin your day and your prayers in silence, for it is in the silence of the heart that God speaks. He is the friend of silence, we need to listen to God because it’s not what we say but what He says to us and through us that matters. — Bodmin Hermit
