“People are often unreasonable and self-centered.
FORGIVE them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives
BE KIND anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you.
BE HONEST anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous.
BE HAPPY anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow.
DO GOOD anyway.
Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough.
GIVE YOUR BEST anyway.

For you see, in the end, it is between you and God.
It was never between you and them anyway.”
~ Mother Theresa

Jesus, you know what it’s like
to feel abandoned
lost and afraid.

Walk with us

And show us how to walk with others,
who live in fear,
who face death
through hunger or war.

Show us how to pray
for those we do not know
and will not meet,
but who are always loved by you.

Walk with us Jesus, Amen.
