Bring peace to our hearts, comfort to those carrying something heavy, healing to those who are hurting and protection over the people we love. Help us slow down,  notice our blessings and trust You with the things we cannot control. – adapted from Messages from the Road

Today’s Reflection: Loving God, we pray for all who wait: those waiting for healing, for justice, for peace. We pray for communities divided by judgment and fear. We pray for creation itself, groaning for renewal. Give endurance, hope and trust in your faithful love. Amen – The Church of Scotland

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: Serenity Prayer (Complete version)

O God, grant me serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
courage to change the things I can and wisdom to know the difference;
living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time;
accepting hardships as a pathway to peace;
taking, as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it;
trusting that You will make all things right if I surrender to Your will;
so that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with You forever in the next. – Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971)
