The Dignity of Every Person
"There is neither male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."
— Galatians 3:28
God of justice,
You created every person in Your image, with equal dignity. Yet in our world, many are still treated unjustly because of their gender, their origin, their condition.
Open my eyes to the injustices around me. Help me recognize the dignity of every person I meet, to treat everyone with the respect they are due.
May I contribute to a world where every human being is valued, where everyone's talents can flourish, where justice and equity reign. Give me the courage to stand against injustice.
Amen.

Reflection
How can you contribute to dignity and equity around you today? A gesture of respect, a word of support, a refusal of injustice?
For all people who are victims of discrimination and for a more just world.
