“Lord, every day I wash myself, make tea and cook using the water that comes from the tap in my home. Teach me to be grateful for this facility and to use this resource with care. Refresh my heart that may have grown selfish and dry with the renewing waters of generosity and charity. May I have the humility to draw on the unending supply of your love and mercy.” (Trocaire Resources).
