Devotion
There are people who’ve been beaten down to the ground everywhere by powerlessness and injustices that overwhelm them. Where do we choose to look? Do we ignore the poor and the needy as we walk the narrow comfortable paths of our daily lives?
Prayer
Merciful God, forgive our selfishness and give us courage to look the suffering of your people in the eye, and do whatever we can to dress the wounds and address the causes of their suffering. Amen.
