“O Lord, give us grace to be faithful and wise in all our words; that what we speak may be seasoned with truth and charity, and may minister grace unto the hearers.”

—John Henry Newman (1801–1890)

Reflection: Where might I need to let truth and charity shape not only what I say, but how I say it?
