PrayerHeavenly Father,Remind us each day,That of all the gifts You have given to us,The greatest of these is Love.Open our hearts not only to those who are close to us,but, to all that we might meet on The Way.Let us forget to judge and remember to forgive,And, help us to show the same patience and empathy You have shown to us, For it is the angry and unloved that cry the loudest. Lord, heal our wounds and bless this work we offer in Your Name,Glory be…Amen.
