Seek Out Those Who Are Distant
Reach out to those who are weak in faith, indifferent or far from God, to those who profess to be atheist or who ridicule religion. (β¦) Make yourself one with everybody, in everything, except in sin. If what they do is sinful, distance yourself. You will see that making yourself one with your neighbors is not a waste of time; it is all time gained. One day, they will want to know what interests you. And then, gratefully, they will discover, adore, and love that God who has been the impetus for your Christian behavior.

βοΈ Prayer to Seek Out Those Who Are Distant
Lord Jesus, You draw close to those who are far. Forgive us when we close our hearts to others. Thank You for showing us how to make ourselves one with our neighbors in love. Help us to reach out with patience so that others may discover and love You. Amen.
A prayer a day, keeps the soul from drifting away
