"They perverted their thinking; they would not allow their eyes to look to heaven, and did not keep in mind just judgments.
As she wept she looked up to heaven, for she trusted in the Lord wholeheartedly." Daniel 13:9, 35
Day 34 of our Lenten journey: Don't we all make those decisions, the choice to look to Heaven for help or not. When we know what we are about to do is wrong, the choice is to look or not look. When we are in need we always look to Heaven. "Jesus spoke to them again, saying, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."" John 8:12. The choice is ours to walk in the light of Christ by following Jesus or to walk in darkness. When we wholeheartedly trust in Christ, even in our moments of weakness we look to Heaven for help and God will come to our rescue. It is when we deny Him that we get ourselves into trouble. The choice is always ours.
Dear Father, I look to Heaven and You give me strength. I seek You and You are there. You are my great protector guarding my soul and preparing it for eternity. Thank You for walking with me and for the guidance of right judgement passed on by my parents. Thank you for prayers being answered in small and simple ways, it is a joy to see You at work in our lives. Bless this day and may we be at peace. Great are you God and wonderful are Your ways!! In Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Queen of the Holy Rosary, pray for us.
