Daily Prayers

Prayer is Love, I want to Love

Marriage And The Resurrection (1)

Extract

Two gold wedding rings
Wedding Day Happiness

When Jesus was asked whose wife a woman would be in heaven, having had more than one husband on earth, He replied, “They can no longer die, because they are equal to Angels and are sons of God”. (Luke 20:36)

Thought

Equality is our distant dream; when tears of sadness become tears of joy and when love is equal among equals.

Reflection

Lord Jesus, purify my ways so that, when my day ends, I will be welcomed to your great feast in paradise, with the Angels and Saints.

Lord, hear my prayer.

Resurrection: God of the Living
Prayer: Before A Crucifix

Behold, O Kind and Most Sweet Jesus,
I fall upon my knees in Thy sight,
and with the most fervent desire of my soul,
I pray and beseech Thee
to impress upon my heart
lively sentiments of faith, hope and charity,
with true repentance for my sins,
and a firm desire of amendment.
Whilst with deep affection and grief of soul,
I ponder within myself and mentally contemplate
Thy five most precious wounds,
having before my eyes that which David the prophet spoke,
O Good Jesus: “They have pierced my hands and feet,
they have numbered all my bones”. Amen.
