Contemplative insight from Mepkin Abbey, drawn from our daily liturgical readings and homily. Help us to pray, one thought per day.
Love God and others
Not mere feeling, affection
But a commitment
Gather in, through Christ
God's Divine Mercy calls me
Hope beyond sorry
Christ comes to fulfill
Not to abolish the Law
The great Law of Love
* Solemnity of the Annunciation
In silence, open
Mary's "yes" sets in motion
God's will to save us.
Why suffer, we ask
Why things go this way, we ask
Why not just trust God
They're all prodigals
One repents, and one resents
One welcomes, pursues
God enables us
Be best with people, events
Even rejection
God enables us
Be best with people, events
Even rejection
Choose the better life
The rich man or Lazarus
It's now or later
19 Mar *St Joseph
Guardian of the Holy Family
Patron of the Universal Church
God fulfills His will
Cooperate for our sake
Just as Joseph did
Silent in his words
Guardian-protector of Him
The Eternal Word
