Morning Prayer 

Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

Inspiration 

To love God and others and to do to others what we would wish for them to do to us is the sum of the Law and the Prophets, which are the two great sections of the Old Testament. If we loved others as much as we love ourselves, we would be instantly changed. If men followed this "Golden Rule" of our Lord, society would immediately be much safer and far more friendly.

Prayer 

Teach us, Lord, to follow the Golden Rule, to do to others what we would desire to be done to us. Show us where we have failed to do this, Lord, and help us to correct our behavior and our attitude. Destroy in us sinful self-love and let love for you and others reign in its place. Amen.
