Reading:
“Beware of practicing your piety before others in order to be seen by them; for then you have no reward from your Father in heaven.” Matthew 6:1
Reflection:
What type of ‘power struggles’ am I engaged in? Am I overly concerned with the opinions and approval of others?
Prayer:
Lord, it is so easy to empasize ‘doing’ over ‘being’. Help me to remember my value lies not in personal accomplishments but in the fact that I am your beloved child. Amen.
