Scripture, Reflection and Prayer for Friday, August 20, 2010

Keep hold of...a good conscience. Some people have let that go and have had their faith ruined.
- 1 Timothy 1:19

Reflection: A good conscience is a treasury of riches. Indeed, what greater riches can there be--or what can be sweeter---than a good conscience?
- St. Bernard

Prayer: All-knowing God, let me be able to stand in Your presence with a good conscience. Help me to avoid anything that would sully my conscience and do all I can to remain united with You.
