Today’s Reflection: Today, Lord, I choose to believe in you
– not to try to go it alone –
but to believe in your loving care for me…
Today, Lord, I choose to trust in you
– not to stress out in fear and panic –
but to trust that you’re always right by my side…
Today, Lord, I choose to live by your Word
– not by my whims and fancies –
but by the wisdom and truth of your Word…
Today, Lord, I choose to walk your path
– following your map and not my own –
’til I find you within me as well as beside me… — Fr. Austin Fleming, excerpt from “Today I Choose”

Today’s Reflection:
Note: Starting off the new year with a personal favourite:
My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going.
I do not see the road ahead of me.
I cannot know for certain where it will end.
Nor do I really know myself,
and the fact that I think I am following your will
does not mean that I am actually doing so.
But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you.
And I hope that I have that desire in all that I am doing.
I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire,
and I know that if I do this
you will lead me by the right road
though I may know nothing about it.
Therefore I will trust you always
though I may need to be lost and in the shadow of death.
I will not fear, for you are ever with me,
and you will never leave me to face my perils alone. — Thomas Merton, OCSO

Today’s Reflection: Prayer
Oh God, I ask not for easier tasks.
I ask for stronger aptitudes and greater talents
to meet any tasks which may come my way.
Help me to help others
so that their lives may be made easier and happier.
Strengthen my confidence in those around me
in spite of what they may do or say.
Give me strength to live according to the Golden Rule,
enthusiasm to inspire those around me,
sympathy to help lighten the burdens of those who suffer,
and a spirit of joy and gladness to share with others. —Attributed to Harry Bullis, former chairman of General Mills
