Scripture Readings: Proverbs 22:22-29, Ezekiel 31-32, 2 Peter 1
Reflection Verse: Proverbs 22:22
Prayer: Lord God, Thank You for Your Word which teaches me that I am to care for and help the poor and afflicted, not rob or oppress them in their already weakened state. The issue is to not keep oppressing a person who is unable to help himself. There is nothing to be gained in doing so. Show me, Lord, the need of the poor and afflicted. Help me be a person who comforts and heals those afflicted or in need… In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
