Open the chapterReflect
Jesus tells a story in which the neighbour is the person who shows mercy. Prayer can open our attention to people we might otherwise pass by. The next act of love may be practical and close at hand.
A question to sit with
Who needs practical care within your reach?
Pray
Lord, open my eyes to the person I might overlook. Give me wisdom and compassion to help well. Amen.
