Láthair Dé

A Íosa dhíl, glaoim ort inniu ar bhealach speisialta. Den chuid is mó tagann mé ag iarraidh fabhair. Inniu ba mhaith liom a bheith i Do láthair. Deonaigh go dtuga mo chroí freagra ar Do Ghrá.

Saoirse

A Athair Neamhaí, léirigh dom cibé ualach atá á iompar agam inniu agus tabhair grásta dom é a chur ag bun do Chroise agus dul isteach saor san tráth paidreoireachta seo.

Comhfhios

A Spioraid Naoimh, tar anuas orm as an nua orm le linn an ama urnaí seo. Tríotsa, go raibh a fhios agam gur leanbh ionúin Dé mé.

Briathar Dé

²¹“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven. ²²On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ ²³Then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; go away from me, you who behave lawlessly.’

²⁴“Everyone, then, who hears these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. ²⁵The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall because it had been founded on rock. ²⁶And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on sand. ²⁷The rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell—and great was its fall!”

²⁸Now when Jesus had finished saying these words, the crowds were astounded at his teaching, ²⁹for he taught them as one having authority and not as their scribes.

Inspioráid

Ar an drochuair, tá i bhfad an iomarca daoine ag tógáil a dtithe agus a saol ar bhunús an-lag. Mar Chríostaithe, tugtar cuireadh dúinn ár saol a thógáil ar an gcarraig atá i gCríost. Cuireann Naomh Pól i gcuimhne dúinn go ndúirt Dia, “Óir ní thréigfidh mé thú ná ní theipfidh mé ort choíche” (Eabhraigh 13:5). Má tá ár saol socraithe go daingean ar an mbunús seo, ní féidir le haon stoirmeacha ná deacrachtaí sinn a shárú. Guímis ar son an ghrásta mhóir seo.

Comhrá

Ní i gcónaí a thagann focail chugam go héasca, a Thiarna.
Féach isteach i mo chroí
agus féach ar mo mhian ar son na síochána.
Bí ag faire orm, a Thiarna.
Tá a fhios agam go bhfuil tú i gcónaí le mo thaobh.

Conclúid

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning,
is now and ever shall be,
world without end. Amen.
