ENLIGHTENMENT PRAYER
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
My God, I firmly believe that Thou art everywhere present and seest all things...cleanse my heart from all vain, wicked, and distracting thoughts. Enlighten my understanding, and inflame my will, that I may pray with reverence, attention, and devotion.
REFLECTION
"The truth can be assaulted but never defeated"
St. Boniface
Reflect on the quote for a while.
What does it mean to you?
Sit quietly and consider this:
Do you read the gospels more or less than you read the news?
THANKSGIVING PRAYER
Almighty and eternal God, I adore Thee, and I thank Thee for all the benefits which Thou, in Thy infinite goodness and mercy, hast conferred upon me.
RESOLUTION
Based on this reflection, I resolve to avoid all sin.
However, I should especially resolve to avoid one particular deadly sin:
(Lust, Envy, Gluttony, Greed, Wrath, Pride, Sloth) more info on the sins here...
Breaking news is just like anything else that happens fast: it is sloppy. It cannot be 100% correct because speed is of the essence. How often do you take time to wait for more facts? How often do you read multiple sources from different angles to get the whole picture? I know what you might say. What does the news have to do with Truth? What does the news have to do with my eternal salvation? I’ll tell you. When you watch and repeat news that is false or sensational, you gossip and talk badly about others. The true good news is the gospel, and we should all talk about that news much more often. Pray for peace and spread the good news.
RESOLUTION PRAYER
My God, I offer Thee these resolutions; unless Thou deignest to bless them, I can not be faithful to them. I beseech Thee most earnestly to bless me, that I may serve Thee faithfully this day by a perfect devotedness to all my duties and a steadfast adherence to all my promises and good resolutions. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Thank You and God Bless +
And until next time … stay holy my friends!
