Prayer is Love, I want to Love

Jesus Heals Two Blind Men (2)

Extract

When two blind me followed Jesus shouting, “Have mercy on us, Son of David” Jesus stopped and asked, “Do you believe that I am able to do this (heal you)?”

When they replied, “Yes, Lord” He touched their eyes and said, “Let it be done for you according to your faith.” Immediately, the two men could see. (Matthew 9: 27-31)

Thought

Faith in Jesus brings great rewards, both today and tomorrow.

Reflection

Lord Jesus, guide me through my difficulties in this life. Renew my strength, courage and determination, so that one day, I will join the Angels and Saints in celebration of your greatness.

Prayer: Peace (St Francis of Assisi)

Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is error, truth;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master,
Grant that I may not so much seek
To be consoled as to console;
To be understood as to understand;
To be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
