Scripture, Reflection and Prayer for Thursday, February 25, 2010

My child, conduct your affairs with meekness, and you will be loved by those whom God accepts.
- Sirach 3:17

Reflection: The meek endure conflict and jealousy, rivalries that arise within families and among neighbors. They do not, however, passively accept situations of injustice. They are anything but indifferent, but they do not respond to violence with violence, to hatred with hatred.
- Pope John Paul II

Prayer: O Lord, let me always fight injustice when I see it, but by being willing to die for justice, never to kill for it.
