May your prayers be answered well today. It cannot happen unless you ask – and there always is something to pray for if you look around and within you. ...
Yes, you are in service – but what does it mean? Often it is misunderstood, for in truth it is much more about being than doing.The spiritual Law of Service says that it is all about living, being and working in the world with an awareness for the needs of others, a wish to do your best and without attachment to getting personal gain or benefit from it.
