Scripture, Reflection and Prayer 04/28/2009

Rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep. Be of one mind toward one another.
- Rom 12:15-16

Reflection:
Here is a model image of what the sentiments of the evangelizer should be: A person who suffers with those who suffer, rejoices with those who rejoice, and gives self to all so that others may share an immense joy.
- Pope John Paul II


Prayer: O Lord, grant that in my dealings with others, I may never succumb to rigidity. Help me to be willing to "walk in their shoes," so that I may respond to their needs and share in their lives.
