Spiritual thought for the day

This is the quote that came up today on the Word of God Everyday, which I receive by email each weekday. I thought it was worth sharing:

Everyone who breathes,
high and low, educated and ignorant,
young and old, man and woman, has a mission.
We are not sent into this world for nothing,
we are not born at random.
God sees every soul.
He deigns to need every one of us.

-- John Cardinal Newman, 19th century
