Today’s Reflection: Broken bread
God, whom we meet in bread and wine,
in body broken and blood outpoured,
fill us with your compassion,
that we may hear the cries of the hungry
and reach out to those in need.
Engender in us a thirst for justice,
that the hungry will be satisfied
and the rich sent empty away.
Roll away our apathy
that, with arms outstretched,
we may offer life in place of death
and hope in the face of despair. Amen. — Annabel Shilson-Thomas/CAFOD

Today’s Reflection: Begin your day and your prayers in silence, for it is in the silence of the heart that God speaks. He is the friend of silence, we need to listen to God because it’s not what we say but what He says to us and through us that matters. — Bodmin Hermit

Today’s Reflection: May the sun bring you new energy by day,
May the moon softly restore you by night,
May the rain wash away your worries,
May the breeze blow new strength to your being,
May you walk gently through the world and know beauty all the days of your life. — Apache blessing

Today’s Reflection: It seems to me that some of us value information over wonder, and noise over silence. And I feel that we need a lot more wonder and a lot more silence in our lives. — Fred Rogers

Today’s Reflection: Grant me,
O Lord, my God,
a mind to know You,
a heart to seek You,
wisdom to find You,
conduct pleasing to You,
faithful perseverance in waiting for You,
and a hope of finally embracing You. — St. Thomas Aquinas

Today’s Reflection: Prayer Lord here are my dirty feet
Lord, here are my dirty feet!
Proof of my walking in life
Proof of easy and difficult distances
and of steady or rough roads
Lord, that I may not fear being tired and hurt
Lord, that I may not fear the dirt and the smell
That I may not avoid walking, due to fear of the terrain.
Though sometimes I may trip and wound myself
Remind me, that my humanity is a walk
Not a static fixed pose
Life is movement, and in our essential walk
Sometimes we feel progress
and sometimes we only see dust
But Lord, you are with me,
and for me, no matter what.
I offer you my head and my hands,
Take care of my walk. —Sindy Collazo
