Today’s Reflection
Even when we reach the dimensions of the highest angels, God will love us not one whit more than God loves us now. The only change is that we become more aware of God’s love already embracing us and more able to respond to that love.
—Flora Slosson Wuellner, Beyond Death: What Jesus Revealed about Eternal Life (Upper Room Books, 2014)

Prayer for the Week
God, you are life itself. Even when I doubt, even when I falter, even when I die, you compassionately sustain me. Despite my fears, you have prepared a place for me in heaven and furnished it with your love. And I love you in return, now and forever. Amen
Submit your prayer to The Upper Room.
