Today’s Reflection: Lord, I know it is human nature to have some anxiety and fear about life and the future. But the uncertainty in so many things causes me constant distress. I dwell on the difficulties and disappointments of my day rather than your great blessings. Forgive me for this lack of faith and trust in you and your wisdom. Grant me true, lasting, interior peace of mind and heart that can only come from complete trust in you, your love, your mercy and your will. – The Passionists of Holy Cross Province

Today’s Reflection: A Morning Prayer

Dear Lord,

I give You my hands to do Your work;

I give You my feet to go Your way;

I give You my eyes to see as You see;

I give you my tongue to speak Your words;

I give You my mind that You may think in me;

I give You my spirit that You may pray in me

Above all, I give You my heart that You may love in me.

I give You my whole self, Lord,  that You may grow in me, so that it is You who lives, and works and prays in me. –  Unknown.
