Today’s Blessing Prayer: Wednesday greetings and blessings to all! I hope you are continuing to navigate through this last day of August with faith and a hopefulness for the future.
Once again, I offer you Pope Francis’ Prayer… O Mary, you shine continuously on our journey as a sign of salvation and hope. We entrust ourselves to you, and the Health of the Sick. At the foot of the Cross you participated in Jesus’ pain, with steadfast faith. You, Salvation of All People, know what we need. We are certain that you will provide, so that, as you did at Cana of Galilee, joy and feasting might return after this moment of trial. Help us, Mother of Divine Love, to conform ourselves to the Father’s will and to do what Jesus tells us: He who took our sufferings upon Himself, and bore our sorrows to bring us, through the Cross, to the joy of the Resurrection. Amen. We seek refuge under your protection, O Holy Mother of God. Do not despise our pleas – we who are put to the test – and deliver us from every danger, O glorious and blessed Virgin. (Prayer Composed by Pope Francis) My prayer of blessing for all of us today is that as we find ourselves navigating through this last day of August, that God will bless us with some time to pause and take into account our blessings, our gifts. The hopelessness of violence, anger, racism, abuse and negativity seem to be all around us but as I have often learned if I pause and take some time away from the craziness of life I can encounter God’s gifts in very real and wonderful ways. God’s presence is all around us, we just have to not let the noise of the world distract us from God. May God bless us with the gift of his presence today in some small way so that we know we are loved and not alone! Have a blessed and holy Wednesday everyone and please know as always you are in my prayers! Peace in Christ’s Passion…Fr. Paul
