How do you deal with people all around you who say they can’t remember names anymore and think it’s normal? I’ve been trying to combat this complacency, and it is getting harder every day.

Daily we need to prayerfully identify ourselves as children of God. It’s a very different definition of generic man (both male and female): God’s idea, God’s expression, God’s image and likeness. When we pray to correctly identify ourselves every morning as spiritual and complete, we have a place to start from in our daily exchanges with others.
