Scripture, Reflection and Prayer for Thursday, May 7, 2009

Loose the chains of injustice and untie the bonds of the yoke, set the oppressed free and break every yoke.
- Is 58:6

Reflection:
Be careful to defend always and everywhere the just rights and true freedom of persons--without discrimination. Such discrimination occurs when we become sensitive only to those victims whose ideas or convictions we share.
- Pope Paul VI


Prayer:
O Lord, teach me to reach out to all Your little ones, especially to those who have no on to defend them. Let me begin this service especially with those with whom I live, work, and play.
