A Prayer for Tuesday, June 4, 2013

Choices, Part 2

O God,

Today, there will be people. All of those people will be in need, be it physical, financial, emotional, spiritual, or social. We will become aware of some of those needs while we will remain unaware of others—but they will be there nonetheless.

We can choose to be helpful or hurtful in our response to people.

Help us not to be hurtful, either through disdain, rejection, apathy, or avoidance.

Help us instead to be helpful through prayer, attention, listening, embracing, and loving.

Inspire us today and all days to choose helping over hurting.

Amen.
