Rosary Meditations


Living His Life Abundantly, Women of Grace and Canticle Magazine

I just wanted to recommend this beautiful set of two CD's called 'My Soul Magnifies the Lord' by Johnette Benkovick. I'm not affiliated with them in anyway, so get nothing by saying this but I own a set and absolutely love it.

Prayers for the men

Spirit Daily - Daily spiritual news from around the world:

" Men, you have an obligation to join your wives and mothers, your sisters, in defending and filling and reviving the Church. It cannot go on forever without you. It is time for real men to stand up. Do you really want to see the Church destroyed? It is also time to kneel. It is masculine to love God. It is masculine to love others. It is masculine to fight for Jesus while we are on this battlefield, this playing field, in this boxing ring called earth.

Want real power? Want real masculinity? Pray. Go the Mass. Fast. See if you are tough enough for that"


Let's pray for all of the men in our lives today. May the Lord draw their hearts back to Him so that they can fulfill their role in the church and in their families more fully. May St. Joseph intercede on their behalf.

“Lord, please let me see.”

USCCB - (NAB) - November 19, 2007

Gospel
Lk 18:35-43

As Jesus approached Jericho
a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging,
and hearing a crowd going by, he inquired what was happening.

They told him,
“Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.”
He shouted, “Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me!”
The people walking in front rebuked him,
telling him to be silent,
but he kept calling out all the more,
“Son of David, have pity on me!”
Then Jesus stopped and ordered that he be brought to him;
and when he came near, Jesus asked him,
“What do you want me to do for you?”
He replied, “Lord, please let me see.”
Jesus told him, “Have sight; your faith has saved you.”
He immediately received his sight
and followed him, giving glory to God.
When they saw this, all the people gave praise to God.


Today's Prayer:
Dear Lord, we too want to see...so that we can follow You more fully and give You glory. Amen.
