God meets me in all that happens to me!

Scripture Luke 24:32 NRSVue

They said to each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us while he was talking to us on the road, while he was opening the scriptures to us?”

Reflection

If the disciples had not invited Jesus to have supper with them, they would never have known that it was he who had walked with them and talked with them. Have you realised that God has been at work in your life, maybe bringing good out of even the bad things?

Today’s Prayer

Lord, you are so mysterious and so good! Let my heart be moved to thank you always and everywhere for the good things in my life, and to trust that you are busy also in its dark chapters, bringing good out of bad, always offering hope. Amen.

O Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in you.

Novena Prayer

Lord, work on my heart until it becomes like your Sacred Heart. Give me hope. Then, I can love you and all my sisters and brothers with the respect, compassion, and forgiveness that you have for everyone. I ask this in your name. I ask you to grant my special request during this novena (here, mention your intention). If what I ask is not for my own good and the good of others, grant me what will most help to build up your kingdom of justice, love and peace. I make this prayer with confidence in your love.  Amen
