Friday

Father, these weeks go by so fast – so much to do – please nudge me to remember to always see your goodness in my busy-ness ( funny that’s really business!)

Thank you for the work and the week behind, grant success to the work of our hands in the time ahead.

I bring you today everyone I work with, work for, or am associated with. I especially bring you everyone working on our large project and their families and friends, let us all work together to achieve the final goal and let that final goal be a good for all.

I pray for all who are transitioning in life, whether it be work, home or family. Perhaps they are changing jobs, perhaps it’s moving on to an empty nest, perhaps it’s welcoming a new life or perhaps it’s facing an illness, give them peace, strength and courage to take each new step.

Lord, I pray for the gift of understanding, to know the whats and whys of how you want us to live for you. Please take every bit of my heart!

Father, please allow your priests to see the Face of Jesus in the Holy Eucharist. Set your Church on fire with faith!
Lord, like Saint Paul I have been touched by your love, and I have heard your command to go out and spread the good news. I renew my trust in your companionship, and I resolve to do all I can to bring your Gospel to others. Help me to keep my eyes on you.

Ignite our souls with a burning faith and inflame our hearts with your love!

Mary, our Queen, pray for us!
