Companions of the Way (Evening)Woe unto them that join house to house, that lay field to field, that they may be placed alone in the midst of the earth.
O THOU who hast taught us that not one of the things which we possess is our own, and yet that having nothing we may possess all things in Thee, help us to bear in mind that we are owners—both of what is great, and what is little—only for a time; and that whatsoever we call our own we now possess in common with the poorest of Thy children. We would use what we have, remembering that soon we must lay it down, while others take it up. May we learn to work more steadfastly while Thou workest in us, to do and to will of Thy good will, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
