Daily Thought from The Saints
“Holiness consists simply in doing God’s will, and being just what God wants us to be.”
— St. Therese Of Lisieux
Daily Scripture Verse
“Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he Will act. He Will bring forth your vindication as the light, and your right as the noonday. Be still before the Lord, and wait patiently for him, fret not yourself over him who prospers in his way, over the one who carries out evil devices!”
Psalm 37:5-7
Daily Meditation
“Through the sacraments of Christian initiation, man receives the new life of Christ. Now we carry this life ‘in earthen vessels,’ and it remains ‘hidden with Christ in God.’ We are still in our earthly tent, subject to suffering, illness, and death. This new life as a child of God can be weakened and even lost by sin. The Lord Jesus Christ, physician of our souls and bodies, who forgave the sins of the paralytic and restored him to bodily health, has willed that his Church continue, in the power of the Holy Spirit, his work of healing and salvation, this is the purpose of the two sacraments of healing: the Sacrament of penance and the sacrament of anointing of the sick.”

A Prayer from Notre Dame University
Rev. Tim Mouton, C.S.C.
Almighty God, you are the source of our love and our faith. May your gifts help us strive to see your Son and follow him with courage. May our lives reflect the faith of the great women and men who have gone before us proclaiming the Good News. May your strength be with us so that we may stand against whatever storms and terrors may come. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
