The central word of this particular thought is mediocrity. It gives me pause because I realize when I am completely honest with myself how often I slip into it and think it to be just fine. Only a casual review of our Founder's writings makes it very clear how much he detested it. In his mind, anything less than the very best we could possibly do, the maximum, was completely unacceptable I challenge myself and all of us to strive for excellence in what we do, at home, at school, at work, in our relationships. Let us give everything in our power, just as Jesus did.
Prayer: Dear Mary, help me be more aware of the times when mediocrity has become the norm so that I can ask for your help to overcome it.
