Morning Offering: 07. 01. 23

Today’s Reflection: Dear Lord,
Please help me to be a better person,
to see you in every corner of my life,
to see you in the people in the world,
to see you in the smallest flower and seed,
to see you in the mountains and valleys,
to see you in the sunset and sunrise
everywhere.
And to know that you love me. — Joan Colleran Hoxsey

Today’s Reflection: PRAYER –
I see his blood upon the rose
And in the stars the glory of his eyes,
His body gleams amid eternal snows,
His tears fall from the skies.

I see his face in every flower;
The thunder and the singing of the birds
Are but his voice—and carven by his power
Rocks are his written words.

All pathways by his feet are worn,
His strong heart stirs the ever-beating sea,
His crown of thorns is twined with every thorn,
His cross is every tree. —Joseph Mary Plunkett

Today’s Reflection: Lord, what am I when compared to this flower? What are you in giving this flower to me? How can I live my life to notice these simple gifts? The simple beauty of the flower stirs my need to know you better. I pray today, God, not to pretend to know you but to wait patiently as you reveal yourself to me over time. — from The Sacred Garden.
