Today’s Blessing Prayer: Monday greetings and blessings to everyone! I hope you had a restful, relaxing and or productive weekend. Perhaps just resting and relaxing was the productivity that you needed! We have entered a week that will begin the holiday season. It is hard to believe that Thanksgiving is approaching with Christmas and the New Year not be far behind. I pray today that the holidays will not come and go too quickly and that all of us will find the time to be thankful and enjoy the gifts of family, friends and the presence of God in our life. Yes, you will be giving a lot of time to shopping, preparing and entertaining but also try to give some time to God throughout this coming holiday season!
My prayer of blessing for everyone today is that during our journey through Thanksgiving, Advent, Christmas and the New Year that God will bless us with the grace of a first love, the gift of sight so that we might let go of the demons of terrorism, hate, racism, anger, bigotry and vengeance so that we might see all people as God’s gifts and have a faith that not only saves us but that brings peace to our life and the life of the world! Have a wonderful day and many blessings to see and love today and always! Peace in Christ's Passion…Fr. Paul
