Prayer
Lord, when we say, ‘Give us today our daily bread,’ may we remember our brothers and sisters who live below the poverty line and pray, ‘Give them today their daily bread’. Give us the wisdom and courage to challenge the policies and structures which make the poor ever poorer, while we have more than enough. Grant us more deep compassion that we will not rest while surplus food rots in one part of the world, and families starve in another, for your loves’ sake.
based on the words of Sister Margaret Magdalen CSMV,
from The Book of a Thousand Prayers by Angela Ashwin, #440
