A Prayer of Reflection

May God sparkle in all of us as sunlight on water, may we radiate for each other compassion and hope, may our work be fruitful, our joy profound, our pain redemptive, may our discipleship be rooted in the very life of God. May we be for each other, for family, for friends, for those in need, for those especially whose faith has come to staleness and whose hope has died…

A burgeoning ALLELUIA light and peace and simplicity with full gratitude, full openness. May we take nothing for less for granted than the life we seek to build upon in common. May we suffer the pain of a fully generous love. May we remain steadfast in the shadow of the cross and rise to meet the passion of the world relying always on the untiring good spirit of our God. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
