Scripture
"A gracious woman wins esteem...A kindly man benefits himself."
(Proverbs 11:16-17)

Reflection
"Do not chase after all kinds of knowledge, enlightenment, and understanding in the hope of gaining the hearts of others.
You will gain those hearts more surely by showing openness and graciousness to them."
- St. John Chrysostom

Prayer
Gracious Lord, help me to show openness and graciousness to others. In this way, let me win over their hearts on earth and gain their souls for eternity.
- Every Day is a Gift
