Oct 7 Scripture Somebody came to me and asked, "Which is the perfect prayer in Catholicism. I said, "The Lord's Prayer" (Lk 11:1-4). He looked disappointed. I said to him, "It is the prayer Jesus taught. If we pray it like Jesus taught, it will transform our life and the world. "Our Father..."

Jesus' religion is one in which love of God breaks down social barriers, enemies become friends, and loving neighbor is a path to God.

Give us, Lord Jesus, a passion; not for seeking to impress those who hold power, place and prestige in the eyes of the world, but a passion to seek and serve the justice and truth of your kingdom, to follow the leading of your Spirit, to look to the revealing of your love to all.

Sept 21 - Feast of Apostle Matthew If "Your friends describe you" is true, then Jesus was doing a very bad job. He hung out with social outcasts and he even called one of them to follow him (Mt 9:9-13). But Jesus makes it a teaching moment: "I desire mercy, not sacrifice." May we learn the lesson.

"Human dignity does not depend on a person’s abilities, wealth or position in life, nor on the right or wrong choices made. Instead, it is a gift that precedes and transcends each person, endowed by God as an expression of his unfailing love.” #PopeLeoXIV

#MorningPrayer Lord Jesus, expand the horizons of our perspective, that we may see not merely with our own vision, but with the eyes of your grace and love. Help us to look beyond the narrow confines of our human comprehension, and grasp the magnitude of your love for all people.

I am amazed at the People who Complain about the condition of their roads, lack of police, struggling schools But say ‘don’t raise my taxes’ . Is there that much lack of understanding of how these public services are Paid for? We need smart people with best interest of the public to be in office.

#MorningPrayer Guide us, Lord Jesus, through the storms of life, that whatever pressures we have to face from the priorities of the powerful, the subtleties of our selfishness, and the challenge of our comfort zone, we may yet be faithful to your call, your kingdom, and your way.

Aug 10 Scripture St. Lawrence gave himself generously to the poor. Drawing examples from farming, scripture (2 Cor 9:6-10; Jn 12:24-26) teaches us that our lives are not meant for self glory and preservation. Rather, life is to be spent for the glory of God & service of humanity. Jesus taught us so.

#MorningPrayer Show us, Lord Jesus, the glory of your being; the glory of your love, your compassion, your mercy and grace. Fix our attention on your call upon our lives, that we may seek and follow the way of your kingdom, not the way of our empires, and offer your peace to all.

Aug 3 Scripture The disciples cried out in fear the first time (Mt 14:26) and then Peter cried out in fear a second time (30). Often, fear can cripple our lives. The key to not let fear dominate us is to keep our eyes on the Lord and confess, "Truly, you are the son of God" (33).
