Dear Lord, help us today to appreciate the many diverse gifts each member of our team is blessed with. Some of us are Jesus’ hands, others, Jesus’ eyes or ears. We need each other to share Jesus in His fullness throughout our team. If the body of Jesus were only eyes, how would we hear the cry of the poor? If the body of Jesus were only hands, how would we walk to those who need us? Help us to come together to recognize and appreciate each team member’s unique gift to our team and to the world. Help us each to be open to new gifts of the spirit. Through our diverse gifts, we we are stronger together. Pope John Paul II said “Remain in the attitude of constant and grateful availability for every gift that the Spirit wishes to pour into your hearts.”
In your name we pray,
Amen.
