Today’s Reflection: Let all of us truly and humbly believe,
hold in our heart and love,
honour, adore, serve,
praise and bless,
glorify and exult,
magnify and give thanks,
to the Most High and Supreme Eternal God,
Trinity in Unity.
Father, Son and Holy Spirit. — St. Francis of Assisi, The Early Rule

Today’s Reflection: Dear God,
On this day I ask You to grant this request.
May I know who I am and what I am,
Every moment of every day.
May I be a catalyst for light and love,
And bring inspiration to those whose eyes I meet.
May I have the strength to stand tall in the face of conflict,
And the courage to speak my voice, even when I’m scared.
May I have the humility to follow my heart,
And the passion to live my soul’s desires.
May I seek to know the highest truth
And dismiss the gravitational pull of my lower self.
May I embrace and love the totality of myself?
My darkness as well as my light.
May I be brave enough to hear my heart?
To let it soften so that I may gracefully
Choose faith over fear.
Today is my day to surrender anything that stands
Between the sacredness of my humanity and my divinity.
May I be drenched in my Holiness
And engulfed by Your love.
May all else melt away.
And so it is. — Debbie Ford

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 –
Jesus, sometimes it is a struggle for me to hope,
and to believe that goodness and love
will triumph over the evils of this world,
with so much violence and suffering,
in every nation.
Walk with me this day,
show me your works alive in the world,
so you and I can see the true God,
who is our living Father
The one who brings us Easter goodness,
In such a Good Friday world — Fr. Phil Cooke, SJ

Today’s Reflection: Heavenly father, I am your humble servant,
I come before you today in need of hope.
I need hope for a calm and joyful future.
I need hope for love and kindness.
I pray for peace and safety.
Some say that the sky is at its darkest just before the light.
I pray that this is true, for today seems
stormy and dim.
I need your light, Lord, in every way.
I pray to be filled with your light. Help me to walk
in your light, and live my life in faith and service.
In your name I pray, Amen. — A Prayer for Hope and Peace, author unknown

I come before you, O Lord.
As the sun rises may your hope rise in me.
As the birds sing may your love flow out of me.

And drink in this moment of peace,
That I may carry something of your hope, love and joy
Today in my heart. Amen. — Author unknown

Today’s Reflection: Let us not tire of preaching love; it is the force that will overcome the world. Let us not tire of preaching love. Though we see that waves of violence succeed in drowning the fire of Christian love, love must win out; it is the only thing that can. — St. Oscar Romero
