Before reacting, pause and pray.
That short moment with God can calm emotions, bring clarity, and help you respond with wisdom instead of impulse.

God of freedom, we praise you for all who show us your hope through their life and choices. We thank you today for Pandita Mary Ramabai’ tireless work to promote access to education and learning for the excluded and marginalised. Help us, like her, to live more simply and to seek to be signs of your justice and grace for others. Amen.

Dduw rhyddid, clodforwn di am bawb sy’n dangos i ni dy obaith trwy eu bywyd a’u dewisiadau. Diolchwn i ti heddiw am waith diflino Pandita Mary Ramabai i hyrwyddo mynediad i addysg a dysg i’r rhai sydd wedi’u hallgáu a’r rhai sydd ar y cyrion. Cynorthwya ni, fel hithau, i fyw yn symlach ac i geisio bod yn arwyddion o’th gyfiawnder a’th ras i eraill. Amen.

Gweddïwn. Let us pray.
