Not Peace But A Sword (1)

Extract

Hands reaching for beautiful flower
The Mystery of Love!

Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me”. (Matthew 10:37)

Thought

God, our creator, sent his only Son to die for our sins; that’s real love!

Would I?

Reflection

Lord Jesus, we pray for all Christians, that their commitment to you is sincere and everlasting.

Prayer: Abandonment (Charles de Foucauld)

Father, I abandon myself into your hands;
do with me what you will.
Whatever you may do, I thank you;
I am ready for all, I accept all.
Let only your will be done in me.
I wish no more than this, O Lord.
Into your hands I commend my soul:
I offer it to you with all the love of my heart,
for I love you, Lord, and so need to give myself,
to surrender myself into your hands without reserve
and with boundless confidence, for you are my Father.
