Our Salvation is Near

 

 

Our Salvation is Near

 

St. Francis de Sales said, "Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself. Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections, but instantly set about remedying them, every day begin the task anew. And, Origen said, “God blessed the land when our Savior came to earth.”

 

The psalms give us wonderful spiritual reflection material, spiritual food to nourish our souls.

 

“Mercy and faithfulness have met;

justice and peace have embraced.

Faithfulness shall spring from the earth

and justice look down from heaven.”  [Psalm 85]

 

“Lord, as daylight fills the sky, fill us with your holy light.

May our lives mirror our love for You whose wisdom has brought us into being, and whose care guides us on our way.

We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.”  Amen.

[From Morning Prayer – Liturgy of the Hours] 

 

“Give heed, O Lord, to my prayer and attend to the sound of my voice.” 

[Psalm 86 – Morning Prayer – Liturgy of the Hours]

 

 

 

 

Today allow the thought of God’s mercy to patiently fill your soul as daylight fills the sky.  The Lord is anxiously awaiting spending time together today.

 

St. Joseph pray for us.

St. Andre Bessette intercede for us.

May God Be Praised!
