Contemplative insight from Mepkin Abbey, drawn from our daily liturgical readings and homily. Help us to pray, one thought per day.
* 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

* St Blaise
Let everyone know
Christ fulfills God's promises
Overwhelming life
* Presentation of the Lord in the Temple
He comes unnoticed
Recognized by those who pray
The presence of God
Navigate life's seas
Cruising the uncertainties
Safe only in Christ
