My reflection today:
“Meet each challenge with strength and courage. Listen to your heart, find wisdom to take the right path, and show your strength and courage by being patient. Stand up for what you believe in, say “no” to that which is not compatible with your values, and show your strength and courage by being true to yourself.
Open new doors for yourself even when you seem too tired to go on. Find the energy to see a new dawn –
a new point of view – and create a new direction where none seems possible. Show your strength and courage by being optimistic.” Bonnie St. John
Standing up for your values seems to be missing in our society today. Growing up when I was young was much easier than it is today. Our society fostered Christian values. Let us pray for that new dawn and that we may show strength and optimism.
