Just For Today
Lord, for tomorrow and its needs, I do not pray. Keep me, my God, from stain of sin just for today. Let me both diligently work and duly pray, Let me be kind in word and deed, just for today. Let me be slow to do my will, prompt to obey; Help me to sacrifice myself, just for today. And if today my tide of life should ebb…

Daily Catholic Meditations
I received this in my inbox this morning. Thought I'd share: Imagine the Lord speaking directly to you: You don’t have to be clever to please Me. Just speak to Me as you would to anyone who cares about you. Are there any people you want to pray for? Tell Me their names and ask for as much as you want. I am generous. Trust…

Be At Peace

Vacation
For the first time in my life, I was able to take an extended (albeit working) vacation - one month in the mountains. And, for the first time in my life, I didn't gain weight on vacation.

Silent Insight - Daily Catholic Meditation 9/28/12
God has created me to do Him some definite service. He has committed some work to me which He has not committed to another. I have my mission. I may never know it in this life, but I shall be told it in the next. I am a link in a chain, a bond of connection between persons. He has not created me for naught. I shall do…
