Daily Positive Thread for Monday

Hello my friends! Hope you all are having a wonderful Sunday. Remember it's the Lord's Day! Been having a nice, relaxing day. After Mass, a cousin asked us if she could come over to see our apartment, she came, and it was a very nice visit. She and her husband lives in one too - one of those co- op ones. They own. Wishing you all very positive week!

When you need to calm your emotions, stop and turn your attention

to God. Lord, I know that You are my help right now and will show me

simple answers to what seems complicated and impossible.

S C R I P T U R E   F O R   T H E   D A Y

"Everyone then who hears these words of mine and acts on them will be
like a wise man who built his house on rock. The rain fell, the
floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not
fall, because it had been founded on rock." ~Matthew 7:24-25

M E D I T A T I O N   F O R   T H E   D A Y

With God's help, I can build a protective screen around myself which
can keep out all evil thoughts. I can fashion it out of my attitude
toward God and my attitude toward other people. When one worrying or
impatient thought enters my mind, I can put it out at once. I know
that love and trust are the solvents for the worry and frets of life.
I can use them to form a protective screen around me.

P R A Y E R   F O R   T H E   D A Y

I pray that frets and impatience and worry may not corrode my
protective screen against all evil thoughts. I pray that I may banish
all these from my life.

He Holds You

God never leaves you alone…

He never forgets about you…

He looks out for you and takes care of you.

You are more important than the birds

He feeds and provides for.

Trusting Him means to rest in Him

as your shield, your covering, your provider,

your defender and your friend.

It means freedom from worry, anxiety and fear.

It means peace to your mind and joy to your soul.

Come to Him; He is waiting…

Lean on Him; He is strong…

Talk to Him; He is listening…

Depend on Him; He will never let you down.

He holds you within the hollow of His hands

to keep you close…to keep you safe…

to deliver you from all your fears.

PENNIES FROM HEAVEN
Author Unknown

I found a penny today
just laying on the ground
But it's not just a penny
this little coin I've found

"Found" pennies come from heaven
that's what my Grandpa told me
He said angels toss them down
oh, how I loved that story

He said when an angel misses you
they toss a penny down
Sometimes just to cheer you up
make a smile out of your frown

So don't pass by that penny
when you're feeling blue
It may be a penny from heaven
that an angels tossed to you

I ASKED FOR

I asked for strength and God gave me difficulties to make me strong
I asked for wisdom and God gave me problems to solve
I asked for prosperity and God gave me brawn and brain to work
I asked for courage and God gave me dangers to overcome
I asked for patience God placed me in situations where I was forced to wait
I asked for love and God gave me troubled people to help
I asked for favors and God gave me opportunities
I received nothing I wanted I received everything I needed
MY PRAYER HAS BEEN ANSWERED

Prayer to One's Guardian Angel

When Unable to Assist at Mass
for Spiritual Communion

Go, my Angel Guardian dear,
To Church for me, ------ the Mass to hear.
Go, kneel devoutly at my place
And treasure for me every grace.
At the Offertory time
Please offer me to God Divine.
All I have and all I am,
Present it with the Precious Lamb.
Adore for me the great Oblation.
Pray for all I hold most dear
Be they far or be they near.
Remember too, my own dear dead
For whom Christ's Precious Blood was shed.
And at Communion bring to me
Christ's flesh and blood, my food to be.
To give me strength and holy grace ,
A pledge to see Him face to face
And when the Holy Mass is done
Then with His blessing, come back home.

Prayer after Communion

Stay with me Lord, for it is necessary to have You present so that I do not forget You.
You know how easily I abandon You.

Stay with me Lord, because I am so weak
and I need Your strength, so that I may not fall so often.

Stay with me Lord, for You are my life,
and without You, I am without fervour.

Stay with me Lord, for You are my light,
and without You, I am in darkness.

Stay with me Lord, to show me Your Will.

Stay with me Lord, so that I hear Your voice and follow You.

Stay with me Lord, for I desire to love You very much,
and always be in Your company.

Stay with me Lord, if You wish me to be faithful to You.

Stay with me Lord, for as poor as my soul is,
I want it to be a place of consolation for You, a nest of love. Amen.

(Adapted, Saint Padre Pio of Pietrelcina.)

October 25 - Jesus Calling

I am God with you, for all time and throughout eternity. Don’t let the familiarity of that concept numb its impact on your consciousness. My perpetual Presence with you can be a continual source of Joy, springing up and flowing out in streams of abundant Life. Let your mind reverberate with meanings of My Names: Jesus—the Lord saves, and Emmanuel—God with us.Strive to remain conscious of My Presence even in your busiest moments. Talk with Me about whatever delights you, whatever upsets you, whatever is on your mind. These tiny steps of daily discipline, taken one after the other, will keep you close to Me on the path of Life.

“She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” … “The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”—which means, “God with us.” —Matthew 1:21, 23

“You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence.” —Acts 2:28
