A QUOTE, A TEXT AND A PRAYER…OR TWO

A QUOTE
If I can stop one heart
 from breaking,
 I shall not live in vain.
-Emily Dickinson

A TEXT
When the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together, and one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him. ‘Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?’ He said to him, ‘ “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.”This is the greatest and first commandment. And a second is like it: “You shall love your neighbour as yourself.” On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.’
Matthew 22: 34-46

AND A PRAYER…OR TWO

Stir up, O Lord,
the wills of your faithful people to seek more eagerly the help you offer,
that, at the last,
they may enjoy the fruit of salvation;
through our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
