Cry of the Poor & Justice

Fr. Dan and Richard Leider discuss the importance of justice and servant leadership in the search for the Heart’s Desire.

Integration

The process of self-discovery is a complex and life-long experience, but it can slip into self-indulgence if it is not coupled with a bias to action and a commitment to help others. We also need to connect who we are with the needs of our world, especially those on the margins. Indeed, often it is only by giving ourselves away that we can find our true selves.

This week’s Integration is to perform acts of service (if possible) or kindness. Volunteer once this week and/or consciously perform five acts of kindness beyond what you normally do in a single day. These do not have to be super-intense or extraordinary actions, but they should have a real impact on another person.
