“Where Is God when You Pray?”
Hear and answer my prayer, O Lord; let me not weep in vain.
“Mighty and wonderful are your works,
Lord God Almighty!
Righteous and true are your ways,
O King of the nations!
Who would dare refuse you honor,
or the glory due your name, O Lord?
Since you alone are holy,
all nations shall come
and worship in your presence.
Your mighty deeds are clearly seen.” [Revelation 15:3-4]
St. Francis de Sales advised us, "If the heart wanders or is distracted, bring it back to the point quite gently and replace it tenderly in its Master's presence. And even if you did nothing during the whole of your hour but bring your heart back and place it again in Our Lord's presence, though it went away every time you brought it back, your hour would be very well employed."
St. Paul taught us, “Let everything you say or do be done in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; through him give thanks to God the Father. Whatever you do, do all for the glory of God. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; through him give thanks to God the Father.” [Colossians 3:17; 1 Corinthians 10:31]
The Prophet Jeremiah said, “When I found your words, I devoured them; they became my joy and the happiness of my heart, Because I bore your name, O Lord, God of hosts.” [Jeremiah 15:16]
Erasmo Leiva-Merikakis observed, “The deepest meaning of Christian discipleship is not to work for Jesus but to be with Jesus.”
Reflect on what place Jesus has in your life, particularly your daily life, God is with you each moment of the day.
Saint Joseph, pray for us.
Saint Andre Bessette intercede for us.
May God Be Praised!
