Daily Thoughts 6-19-2017 2 Corinthians 6:4-7

"on the contrary, in everything we commend ourselves as ministers of God, through much endurance, in afflictions, hardships, constraints, beatings, imprisonments, riots, labors, vigils, fasts; by purity, knowledge, patience, kindness, in a holy spirit, in unfeigned love, in truthful speech, in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness at the right and at the left;" ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭6:4-7

Do circumstances impact your life or do you live in peace no matter what comes your way?  Things happen all the time in our daily lives how you respond is the difference.  We are called to endure the bad as well as the good, to recognize what it is you are to learn from it and make good out of it.  Work at living in the love of Christ and let Christ influence the outcome. His words tells us how to respond, "purity, knowledge, patience, kindness, in a holy spirit, in unfeigned love, in truthful speech, in the power of God;"

Closing prayer from this mornings liturgies of the hour
King of heaven and earth, Lord God,
  rule over our hearts and bodies this day.
Sanctify us,
  and guide our every thought, word and deed
  according to the commandments of your law,
so that now and for ever
  your grace may free and save us.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
  who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
  one God, for ever and ever.
Amen.

The Lord bless us, and keep us from all evil, and bring us to everlasting life."

Mary, Queen of the Holy Rosary, pray for us.
