Prayer for the Day

O God the Father of all, you ask every one of us to spread love where the poor are humiliated, joy where the church is brought low and reconciliation where people are divided, father against son, mother against daughter, husband against wife, believers against those who cannot believe, Christians against their unloved fellow Christians. You open this way for us, so that the wounded body of Jesus Christ, your Church, may be leaven of communion for the poor of the earth and in the whole human family.
--Mother Theresa
