Live in a manner worthy of the Lord and please Him in all ways, bearing fruit in every good work.
- Col 1:10
Reflection: In a secularized world, to speak and act in the name of Jesus can bring opposition and even ridicule. It often means being out of step with the majority opinion. Yet if we look at the New Testament, we find encouragement for perseverance in this testing of our faith.
- Pope John Paul II
Prayer: Lord Jesus, help me never to measure my morality by the standards of an unbelieving world. Let the Gospel be the source of my beliefs and the goal of my actions.
