Morning Offering: 05. 02. 25

Today’s Reflection:  

God, teach me to honor the space others need their “no”, their silence, their limits. Help me to listen without pushing, to care without controlling and to love with grace and respect. May my presence bring peace, not pressure. — Benedictine Sisters of Perpetual Adoration

Today’s Reflection: Heavenly Father,
As You prune the branches of our lives,
Grant us the grace to yield to Your loving hand,
To surrender to Your will,
And to trust in Your divine plan.

In the pruning process, may we find renewal,
May we grow in love, compassion, and mercy,
And may our lives bear abundant fruit,
Reflecting Your glory to the world.
Amen.—Jackie Schulte

Today’s Reflection: Be present.
Let the day flow with grace.
Expect nothing. Give thanks.
Surrender. Be open.

Impart only love.
Never forget you’re not alone.
Give so you may receive.
See goodness in others. — Unattributed.

Today’s Reflection: Familiar prayer, with a twist –
God, give us grace to accept with serenity
the things that cannot be changed,
Courage to change the things
which should be changed,
and the Wisdom to distinguish
the one from the other. — Reinhold Niebuhr.

Today’s Reflection: I am not alone. Why do I keep forgetting that? You see me, you know me! Every heartbeat mirrors your own. My every emotion finds a reference in you first. Give me the grace to entrust my fragile and often self-centered self to you, the God-who-loves-me. I surrender everything to you – even my most embarrassing vulnerabilities. Your grace is enough for me. — Monique Jacobs, spiritual director.
