Good and gracious God, today, in our world and in our own lives, there is much uncertainty and fear. But we also know that You are our creator and that You hold the world in the palm of Your hand. You ask us to trust in You. Give us a heart full of that divine trust. May we look to You with confidence and know that You are the loving Lord of our lives. We pray this in Your most holy name.
Amen.
Give up money, give up fame, give up science, give up the earth itself and all it contains rather than do an immoral act. And never suppose that in any possible situation, or under any circumstances, it is best for you to do a dishonorable thing, however slightly so it may appear to you... From the practice of the purest virtue, you may be assured you will derive the most sublime comforts in every moment of life, and in the moment of death.
—Thomas Jefferson
