MEDITATION:
Written by Mother Teresa ((1910-1997), a Catholic nun and missionary who served the poor of India. This is from her book, “Words to Love By.”
If you are preoccupied with people who are talking about the poor, you scarcely have time to talk to the poor. Some people talk about hunger, but they don’t come and say, “Mother, here is five rupees. Buy food for these people.” But they can give a most beautiful lecture on hunger.
PRAYER:
Written by Lloyd Wicker, a contemporary pastor and chaplain in the US Navy.
Lord Jesus, give us eyes to see the people around us and to care for their needs, even if it may be inconvenient or difficult. Give us the desire to share your love. Amen.
