| | Heavenly Father,help us remember that the jerk who cut us off in
traffic last night is a single mother who worked nine hours that day
and is rushing home to cook dinner, help with homework, do the laundry
and spend a few precious moments with her children. Help us to remember
that the pierced, tattooed, disinterested young man who can't make change
correctly is a worried 19-year-old college student, balancing his
apprehension over final exams with his fear of not getting his student
loans for next semester. Remind us, Lord, that the scary looking bum,
begging for money in the same spot every day is a slave to addictions
that we can only imagine in our worst nightmares. Help us to remember
that the old couple walking annoyingly slow through the store aisles
and blocking our shopping progress are savoring this moment, knowing
that, based on the biopsy report she got back last week, this will be
the last year that they go shopping together. Heavenly Father, remind
us each day that, of all the gifts you give us, the greatest gift is love.
It is not enough to share that love with those we hold dear. Open our
hearts not to just those who are close to us, but to all humanity. Let
us be slow to judge and quick to love.
