A Passionary Intention

Today, I choose to live my life with passion. Today, I intend to follow Christ more nearly, love more dearly and incarnate God's grace more clearly by asking myself three questions:

* Where will I follow Christ today?

* To whom shall I demonstrate Jesus' love and justice today?

* How can I play my part in practicing the presence of Christ, right here, right now?
