Wednesday’s Wink from Above 10/01/2025 - “Oktoberfest on Prayer.”

There are five Wednesdays in October 2025, so the “Wednesday Wink from Above” will be an “Oktoberfest on Prayer.”

I hope you are able to read all five.

One of the most important reasons to pray is to mold our heart according to God’s Will.

When pray the Liturgy of the Hours, we begin “God, come to my assistance.

— Lord, make haste to help me.” Whether you pray the Liturgy of the Hours or not, that Invocation is a marvelous way to start your day.

 

 

The Psalms are a powerful collection of prayers we have received from our Jewish heritage, and they are at the “Heart of the Old Testament.”

Today the Psalms are the Church’s official prayer book known as the Psalter or the Liturgy of the Hours. Prayer for our Jewish ancestors was at the heart of Israel’s relationship with God. So, to for us our relationship with God forms the basis of our prayer life.

 

 

It is through prayer that we come to know, love, and serve God bending our will to God’s Will for us. Today, read and reflect on the Luke 8:1-8. https://bible.usccb.org/bible/luke/18

 

Any relationship takes time and persistence; prayer time is an excellent [in fact the best] use of our time.

 

May God Be Praised.
