During COVID when at home, I discovered the most awesome daily devotional. It's an app called Lectio365. You can listen to it, or read it yourself. It's a quick 8-12 minutes, but packed with scripture, prayer and insight. Here I will make notes of daily devotionals and highlight some things to remember. Today is a reflection of Dorothy Day who died 43 years ago today.

He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God Micah 6:8

Dorothy Day (November 8, 1897 – November 29, 1980) was an American journalist, social activist and anarchist. She was perhaps the best-known political radical among American Catholics.

Psalm 10:17-18: You, Lord, hear the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry,
defending the fatherless and the oppressed, so that mere earthly mortals will never again strike terror.

“We cannot love God unless we love each other, and to love we must know each other. We know Him in the breaking of bread, and we know each other in the breaking of bread, and we are not alone anymore. Heaven is a banquet and life is a banquet, too, even with a crust, where there is companionship.” ― Dorothy Day

Dear Lord, help me to think and ACT mor like Dorothy, for they will know we are Christians by our love.
