Find the Lord in every moment

Please visit: Standing Under the Sky for a beautiful reflection very similar to my post yesterday about finding Jesus in our midst.

O Lord, hear my prayer, and let my cry come to you.

The Responsorial psalm today: "O Lord, hear my prayer, and let my cry come to you." Yes, Lord, please hear all of our prayers this day. Please look down upon us as we journey through Lent, striving to come closer to You. Please help us to transform our lives into a prayer that is pleasing to You. Please help our hearts be attentive to all who surround us who need Your love and attention - which we pray You will allow to come through us, your humble servants. Thank you for this day to serve You and my fellow pilgrims. O Lord, hear my prayer, and let my cry come to You.

Thank you, Lord for this new day!

Thank you, Lord for this brand new day! A new day full of challenges and opportunities. A new day in which to serve you, a new day to spread your love and do your will. A new day to be sorry for my sins, a new day to offer forgiveness to those that have harmed me, a new day to care for those around me. A new day to offer up to You all of my aches and pains or inconveniences, praying that they can be united to Your suffering and become redemptive for myself and others. Help me today, Lord to see You in others who surround me - the very people I am to minister to with love. Thank you, Lord for this new day to try to slow down for a moment and really listen to You whispering to my soul. Thank you, dear Lord for my life!
