April 25

There are people in our lives who are shining examples of their faith, who are awe-inspiring in the integrity of living how they say they believe.  I thank God for the gift of those people in our lives- in my life.

Almighty and gracious God, thank you for allowing me to know people who love you so well.  Thank you for the strength of their faith, for the joy of their friendship, for the lessons they teach simply by being themselves.  Amen.
