We are fools for the sake of Christ, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are held in honor, but we in disrepute.

—1 Corinthians 4:10 (NRSV)

“Some might call him a madman, but he was the very reverse of a dreamer. Nobody would be likely to call him a man of business; but he was very emphatically a man of action. In some of his early experiments he was rather too much of a man of action; he acted too soon and was too practical to be prudent. But at every turn of his extraordinary career we shall find him flinging himself around corners in the most unexpected fashion, as when he flew through the streets after the beggar.” —G. K. Chesterton, writing about St. Francis of Assisi

Make me impetuous today, Lord. Let’s call it courage. Take me out of my comfort zone to serve You.
