Today’s Reflection: BLESSING:
God be with you in the morning
In the sunshine or the rain
In the magic of each moment
As the day begins again
God be with you in the evening
When the day has reached its goal
When all creatures cuddle closely
And the lamb bleats near the foal.— Bodmin Hermit

but there was silence.

but there was silence.

but there was silence.

Today’s Reflection: A New Serenity Prayer
God, grant me the serenity
to accept the people I cannot change,
which is pretty much everyone,
since I’m clearly not you, God.
At least not the last time I checked.
And while you’re at it, God,
please give me the courage
to change what I need to change about myself,
which is frankly a lot, since, once again,
I’m not you, which means I’m not perfect.
It’s better for me to focus on changing myself
than to worry about changing other people,
who, as you’ll no doubt remember me saying,
I can’t change anyway.
Finally, give me the wisdom to just shut up
whenever I think that I’m clearly smarter
than everyone else in the room,
that no one knows what they’re talking about except me,
or that I alone have all the answers.
Basically, God,
grant me the wisdom
to remember that I’m
not you. Amen. — Fr. James Martin, SJ
