Contemplative insight from Mepkin Abbey, drawn from our daily liturgical readings and homily. Help us to pray, one thought per day.
Be happy, blessed
Be rich in the sight of God
All through life's struggles
God is with the weak
Let us understand
God understands our hunger
God hungers for us
* Saints Cyril & Methodius (bishop), brothers, monks, Patrons of Europe
Jesus takes aside
Touches, opens lips and ears
Indeed, all is well!
* World Day of Prayer for the Sick
* Our Lady of Lourdes
In sickness or health
Jesus calls us to Himself
God desires wholeness
* St Scholastica
God draws close to us
Jesus draws close to the sick
Offering healing
Wholeness, holiness
Live as God's image-likeness
day by day by day
Selfish to selfless
Little tweak may do the trick
Or we may be tricked
bleeding, leaking life
just a touch of His garment
faith feat and life surged
bleeding, leaking life
just a touch of His garment
faith feat and life surged
* St Blaise
Let everyone know
Christ fulfills God's promises
Overwhelming life
