Today’s Reflection: Do not take on too much for this will achieve the best results. Let silence and stillness be your chosen way, and may you achieve quietness. The Lord desires neither your busyness nor your things, but all you are. — Bodmin Hermit.

Today’s Reflection: Lord, when we are anxious and confused, provide comfort and reassurance.
When we are idle and lazy, provide inspiration and energizing encouragement.
While we wait, ready our bodies, hearts, and minds to receive you.
As we tend to our Christian duties, do not delay.
Come, Lord, Jesus! Amen.
Come, Lord, Jesus! Amen. — Christopher Alt, SJ

Today’s Reflection: O God, when I have food, help me to remember the hungry;
When I have work, help me to remember the jobless;
When I have a home, help me to remember those who have no home;
When I am without pain, help me to remember those who suffer,
And remembering, help me to destroy my complacency;
Bestir my compassion, and help me be concerned enough to help,
By word and deed, those who cry out for what we take for granted. Amen. — Rev. Samuel F. Pugh.

So often we forget that you already live in us.
Give us the gift of looking towards you each morning
