04/01/2013 - Daily Prayer

O God of all humanity,
You send us Your servants to teach and inspire us, to elevate our lives, and to bring us closer to Your truths. One of Your servants who worked tirelessly on behalf of others, Cesar Chavez, cautioned us that "It is possible to become discouraged about the injustice we see everywhere. But (he said) God did not promise us that the world would be humane and just. He gives us the gift of life and allows us to choose the way we will use our limited time on earth. It is an awesome opportunity."

May we use our time on earth wisely, so that when our time comes to meet the One who has created us, and we are asked how did we use our time, we can say by enriching the world with kindness and compassion, justice and peace.

May this be God`s will. Amen.
