The Lord Almighty fights for us.
Therefore teach us
to fight with weapons of light, not carnal weapons
the way of the cross, not the way of the sword
to bless and not curse (Rom 12:14),
to give thanks and not grumble.
As we suffer injustice, following Jesus,
we entrust ourselves to our Faithful Creator
and continue to do good. (1 Peter 4:19)
Pain and pleasure come and go, but God remains. So today I intend to meet all pain with tenderness and meet all pleasure with open hands.
