Monday - Daily Prayers

Take a moment to listen to the still small voice of God within the bustle of the day which has begun. Find a quiet place where you can enjoy precious moments of peace in God's presence. Sit quietly and listen to the sounds of the world around you, both outside and in the place where you are. Breathe slowly and rest in God's presence......

Christ our healer
Christ our teacher
Our inspiration and purpose
Christ our defender
Christ our redeemer
Our liberation and precious

Spend a moment or two to reflect on God’s impact on your life. Think about the relationships you have with those among whom you share Christian fellowship. Are there barriers to open-ness, areas of your faith and life that are no-go in conversations? Why is that - and what could you do to remedy the situation?

Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him. Fear the LORD, you his saints, for those who fear him lack nothing. The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing. (Psalm 34: 8-10)

Choose a meditation

Take, Lord, and receive all my liberty,
my memory, my understanding,
and my entire will,
all that I have and possess.
Thou hast given it all to me.
To thee, O Lord, I return it.
All is thine,
dispose of it wholly according to thy will.
Give me thy love and thy grace,
for this is sufficient for me.

Ignacius of Loyola ?1522-3
