Lord, it’s likely that sometime today someone will push my buttons challenge my good will misread my intentions tick me off try my patience rattle my cage judge me in haste test my kindness or do all of the above…
Give me the grace I’ll need at such times to respond with patience to trust and accept to listen carefully to reach out in peace to be fair and just to anticipate goodness in all my words and deeds…
I know this is a lot to ask, Lord, but I need your help to do for others as I’d have them do for me. Amen. — Rev. Austin Fleming

Today’s Reflection: God, if we could only know how patient you’ve been with us, we’d be a little more understanding with others. Give us a sense of your serenity so we might share it with someone else today. Amen. — Joe Ertle, SJ

Today’s Reflection:Repeated in response to a request –
May you practice patience, forgiveness and failing that, silence. May you ignore nonsense and provocation. May your coffee, your resolve and your wifi be strong and may you face challenges with humour, grace and chocolate when necessary and always notice the small moments of beauty. — Bodmin Hermit
