Intention of the Day
That our lives be a credible witness to those around us.
For all those working with and participating in Young Marist enterprises across the region.
That our lives be a credible witness to those around us.
For all those working with and participating in Young Marist enterprises across the region.
Today's Gospel The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus.
One of the soldiers pierced his side with a lance; and immediately there came out blood and water.
John 19: 31-37.
Breaking Open The Word
Ultimately, this is what I think the water and blood flowing from the side of Christ are meant to reveal—the symbiosis of divine and human love.
Taken from: Give Us This Day
That our lives be a credible witness to those around us.
For all those working with and participating in Young Marist enterprises across the region.
Marist Source
Christ unites all of us as the People of God; equal in dignity and diverse in our service and state of life. Each and everyone of us works in the same common vineyard of the Lord with diverse and complementary charisms and ministries…
That our lives be a credible witness to those around us.
For all those working with and participating in Young Marist enterprises across the region.
To Ponder
“And immediately there came out blood and water”. What does Jesus’ humanity mean to you?
Where has the Spirit drawn you in today's prayer?
Closing Prayer
All Loving God
Cultivate in us a spirituality that flows out of Marian simplicity, humility and modesty.
Release in us wellsprings of refreshment, inspiration and excitement for your work in which we share.
Help us set our gaze on those people and places most in need of Christlife,
Impel us to respond together,
And lead us to be in communion with one another, and with you.
Like Mary, we listen for your invitation,
Like Mary, we set out joyfully and in haste to the hill country of the lives of young people,
Like Mary, we build communities in ways that are Christ-centred.
All Loving God, come and live in our hearts.
Amen
