Daily Thought: "Great and
wonderful are all your works, Lord, mighty God!" the refrain for the
responsorial psalm today. What a wonderful thought to consider as we enter a
new day. However if we read on in our Gospel for today Jesus tells us, that
persecution, pain, struggle and difficult time are ahead if we believe. He says
these struggles and persecutions will come from everywhere they can even come
from our family.
This seems a far cry from great and
wonderful works! It seems that believing, having faith takes a tremendous
amount of trust in God and trust is not always easy. However, if we have that
trust then great and wonderful things can happen!
In the midst of our daily struggles, in
the midst of everything that makes it hard to have faith, to hope, to love can
we are asked to trust in God presence and action in our life and if we do we
will encounter the great and wonderful things of our loving God today and
always!
Have a great Wednesday everyone!
Daily Prayer: O God, let us
have hearts ready to trust in your abundant kindness and mercy that we might
always be ready to say great and wonderful are your works, Loving God!
A Runner's Thoughts: “Every day is a
fresh start; don't measure yourself by yesterday's troubles.” (Dagny Scott
Barrios) So always run with imagination and see as you run God is running
towards you!
Daily Blessing: Wednesday
greetings to everyone! A special shout out to my niece Sarah who celebrates her
birthday today! Happy Birthday, Sarah and many more! Ah, to be young again!
I hope your Wednesday has started out
well. I am here in Fairfax, VA and the rain has been coming down for a few
hours now. They say it will be turning to snow and that today across the
Northeast things are going to be bad weather wise. If you are traveling today
especially in the Northeast please travel safe!
My prayer of blessing today is that
everyone will have a truly blessed and joyous Thanksgiving. May your gatherings
tomorrow be blessed with family, friends, good food, funny stories that will
create a joyous feast of love! May God’s great and wonderful love touch your
life today, tomorrow and always! May God’s blessings be upon your travel, your
gatherings, your meals, your conversation and all who gather with you. Don’t
forget to give God thanks in some way! Have a wonderful Wednesday wherever you
are and whatever you are doing! Many blessings as you journey through life
today. Peace in Christ's Passion...Fr. Paul
