Daily Prayer<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a>Whether we are reaching
\nfor the last sale item
\nor helping someone in need,
\nit is far too easy
\nto get wrapped up in ourselves.
\nWe fail to see the other person,
\ncomplete with their own needs,
\ntheir own wants,
\ntheir own fears.
\nPlease help me to turn my gaze
\nto You so that I can look outward and upward
\ntoward something bigger than myself.<\/p>\n
