Reflections V: World Day of the Poor

See Me As A Person…

What do they mean when they say I can’t work?
I have a disability that’s true. But I am a person, a person who can think and feel and create – and work.
It’s the attitudes and built environment that stop me from working – these are not fixed, they can be changed.
Father of creation, you gave me life, help me to fulfil it, help to change the minds – now closed – to see me as a person who will give and not one who takes.
I trust in you, Lord, and know you will not fail me. Amen.
