When your burden seems heavier than usual, know that your blessings

are more than usual. Lord, I call on you for the strength, the wisdom

and the confidence that I will need today.

Scripture for the day:

"When they saw him walking on the sea, they thought it was a ghost and cried

out; for they all saw him and were terrified. But immediately he spoke to

them and said, 'Take heart, it is I; do not be afraid.'" ~Mark 6:49-50

Meditation for the day:

I can take the most crowded day without fear. I believe that God is with me

and controlling all. I can let confidence be the motif running through all

the crowded day. I need not be worried, because I know that God is my

helper. Underneath are the everlasting arms of God. I can rest in them,

even though the day be full of things crowding in upon me.

Prayer for the day:

I pray that I may be calm and let nothing upset me. I pray that I may not

let material things control me and choke out spiritual things

Hello my friends, It's been a very busy day - I'm starting to put my Glory of God list onto Gmail, and that takes a lot of time plus learning how gmail works etc. I've got a few blessing emails from members of my list saying how much they look forward to it and helps in their spiritual life. God know how to bless me when I’m stressed and trying to it done!!! Praying for you all, thanks for your prayers for us.

My Child...

Sometimes I ask the question,

"My Lord, is this Your will?"

It's then I hear You answer me,

"My Precious Child...Be still."

Sometimes I feel frustrated,

Cause I think I know what's best.

It's then I hear You say to me,

"My Busy Child...Just rest."

Sometimes I feel so lonely

And I think I'd like a mate.

Your still small voice gets oh so clear

And says, "My Child...Please wait."

"I know the plans I have for you,

The wondrous things you'll see;

If you can just be patient, Child,

And put your trust in Me.

I've plans to draw you closer.

I've plans to help you grow.

There's much I do you cannot see

And much you do not know.

But know this, Child...I LOVE YOU.

You are precious unto Me.

Before I formed you in the womb,

I planned your destiny.

I've something very special

I hope for you to learn.

The gifts I wish to give to you

Are gifts you cannot earn.

They come without a price tag,

But not without a cost;

At Calvary, I gave My Son,

So you would not be lost.

Rest Child, and do not grow weary

Of doing what is good.

I promise I'll come back for you

Just like I said I would.

Your name is written on My palm,

I never could forget;

Therefore, do not be discouraged

When my answer is...'Not yet.'"

Your Work Today

Is anyone happier because you passed this way?

Does anyone remember that you spoke to him today?

Can you say tonight, in parting with the day that is slipping fast,

That you helped a single person of the many that you passed ?

Is a single heart rejoicing over what you did or said?

Does the man whose hopes were fading, now in courage look ahead?

Did you leave a trail of kindness or a scar of discontent?

As you close your eyes in slumber, do you think that God will say,

You have earned one more tomorrow by the work you did today.

Prayer for the Help of the Holy Spirit

O God, send forth your Holy Spirit into my heart that I may

perceive, into my mind that I may remember, and into my soul

that I may meditate. Inspire me to speak with piety,

holiness, tenderness and mercy. Teach, guide and direct my

thoughts and senses from beginning to end. May your grace

ever help and correct me, and may I be strengthened now with

wisdom from on high, for the sake of your infinite mercy.

Amen.

Saint Anthony of Padua

My Prayer to Our Mother Mary

Hail and praise be unto thee, Mary, whom God Almighty has exalted above all of his other servants!! God has entrusted us unto your care and graciously grants any request that you make of Him on our behalf, if it is in accordance with His Divine Will. Our hearts burn with zeal as we honor you our Mother. We love you as a child loves a mother and you love us as mother loves her children. Please guide us, your little ones, to our Eternal and Almighty Father God through our prayers and through your love for us. Many in this world may slander and degrade you while still claiming to exalt God, please forgive them and pray for them for they may dishearten your devoted children. May we be made worthy of the promises of Christ through your prayers. You love us so freely and we are so unworthy of it. You love us because God and Christ loved us first. Mary, mother, I love you. Amen.
