A PRAYER FOR TODAY: Teach us, o Lord, to not be guided by mere appearances. Help us not to be impressed by beauty and charisma. Teach us to wait for Your judgment, while observing the fruit of each person’s life. Remind us (me) to wait for the verdict of the One True Judge. Through Your Spirit, in the name of Christ, Amen
