Eyes on the Prize

Birds and clouds

Reflect

Stephen Covey once counseled that we should begin with the end in mind. We should consider what we really want to happen in every situation. We should consider how we might contribute to the wellbeing of others and ourselves and act accordingly. Let us act with intentionality to bring peace on earth and good will to all.


Pray 

Loving God, 
Help me keep my eyes on the prize.
Let me act with awareness, 
Prayerfully seeking to do your will
In every situation.
Help me be faithful to my calling 
As your beloved child 
And companion in healing the world.
Amen.


Act

In every situation, ask: “What would Jesus want me to do? How might I share God’s light and love and bring out the best in others? How might I live out my vocation as God’s healing companion?”
