Today’s Reflection: Thank you, Christ, for giving me another chance when I mess up. I will remember to be forgiving of others too. —Benedictine Sisters of Perpetual Adoration

Today’s Reflection: Lord, Give us understanding that we may learn our lessons well. Give us compassion that we may show your face to those we meet. Give us generosity that we may share the gifts you have given us. Give us faith that we may have confidence in ourselves. Above all give us love that we may bring joy into the lives of those around us. —Excerpted from Prayer of Dedication by Adrian Porter, SJ

I’m in awe of your ways, oh Lord In me, You love and value what I don’t. You gladly use what I want to discard. If I see a dead end, You show me a path out.
If I’m blind, You make me listen. If I’m deaf, You show me the truth. When I rest, You visit my thoughts.
You lift me up when I’m humble and tame me when I’m proud. You frustrate my plans, when I’m controlling and help me advance when I give You my trust.
You show me that love is the way Because I was wounded, I could help others heal Because I was broken, I could help others to mend.
Every time I feared to trust You I was faced with your unrelenting love You left me without arguments and excuses and what was left was nothing more but awe of your ways, oh Lord. Amen — Sindy Collazo
