Are Those Who Have Died Nearby?

Today’s Reflection

Prayer for the Week

God, you are life itself. Even when I doubt, even when I falter, even when I die, you compassionately sustain me. Despite my fears, you have prepared a place for me in heaven and furnished it with your love. And I love you in return, now and forever. Amen
