TRUST GOD ONE DAY AT A TIME! &
“PRAY WITHOUT CEASING! ”

Never let anything so fill you with sorrow as to make you forget the joy of the Christ risen...Mother Teresa

BELIEVE
To believe is to know that every day is a new beginning.It is to trust that miracles happen, and dreams really do come true.To believe is to see angels dancing among the clouds,To know the wonder of a stardust sky and the wisdom of the man in the moon.To believe is to know the value of a nurturing heart,The innocence of a child’s eyes and the beauty of an aging hand,for it is through their teachings we learn to love.To believe is to find the strength and courage that lies within us.When it is time to pick up the pieces and begin again.To believe is to know we are not alone,That life is a gift and this is our time to cherish it.To believe is to know that wonderful surprises are just waiting to happen,And all our hopes and dreams are within reach.If only we believe.

St. Ignatius of Loyola

Take, Lord, and receive all my liberty, my memory, my understanding, and my entire will, All I have and call my own.

You have given all to me. To you, Lord, I return it.

Everything is yours; do with it what you will. Give me only your love and your grace, that is enough for me.

May Every Breath Be A Prayer


Prayer is available to us with every breath.
Breath prayer is a meditative prayer in which we pause, slow down and focus on God’s presence. The repetition allows us to ponder our words deeply, to feel it them in the core of our being. The short phrase is prayed in rhythm with ones breathing so that, in a sense, we are praying our petition or praise with the very rhythm of life. 1 Thessalonians 5:17 says, “pray continually.” As our prayer becomes as natural as breathing, we may be able to pray without ceasing. Our breathing becomes a prayer. Breath prayer helps me stay connected to God all day. It soothes my heart and sings to my soul.

Here’s a simple breath prayer to try today:
As you breathe in, silently say: Your Kingdom Come
and as you breathe out, say: Your will be done
Do this as often as you remember throughout the day.
Other examples are….
“In you, Lord, I put my trust,” “Help me understand your ways, Lord,” “Lord I am yours,” and “My Lord and my God.” The idea is to pick a meaningful phrase and repeat it until it becomes a part of your being.

 like magic and it always will be
For love still remains life’s sweet mystery
Love works in ways that are wondrous and strange
And there is nothing in life that love cannot change
Love can transform the most commonplace
Into beauty and splendor and sweetness and grace
Love is unselfish, understanding and kind
For it sees with its heart and not with its mind
Love gives and forgives
There is nothing too much
For love to heal with its magic touch
Love is the language that every heart speaks
For love is the one thing that every heart seeks

To Love One Another
Father,
Help us love each other as we love ourselves. May the Holy Spirit, who has poured Your love into our hearts, give us Your selfless love, for our love falls far short of the mark. (Matthew 22:39; Romans 5:5)
May those who are married have Your perfect love especially for each other and their children. May every child be considered as Your reward, to be loved and nurtured and taught how to live lives that are obedient and pleasing to You. May we as a family be united in love. (Galatians 5:22a; Psalm 127:3; Ephesians 6:4b; 1 John 3:21–22; Colossians 2:2a)
May we submit ourselves to one another—considering others more important than ourselves, putting the others' interests ahead of our own. Help us to treat each other the way we would want to be treated in every circumstance. (Ephesians 5:21; Philippians 2:3b–4; Matthew 7:12)
May our relationships be built on these principles—for if they are, what could ever come between us? You always know what's best!
In Jesus' name, amen.


Sweet Blessings,
Virginia
