For all of you are children of the light and children of the day. We are not of the night or of darkness.
1 Thessalonians 5:5

Don’t be afraid to be who you are, to share what you have—a smile, an encouraging word, an act of kindness, an item for the food pantry, a prayer for someone in need. Don’t bury your goodness.

Today I will make a list of my gifts and talents and ask the Holy Spirit for guidance on how to use them to be of help in our fragile world. I will also ask for the grace to grow in goodness in the light of God’s love.
