"O afflicted one, storm-battered and unconsoled, I lay your pavements in carnelians, your foundations in sapphires; I will make your battlements of rubies, your gates of jewels, and all your walls of precious stones. All your children shall be taught by the LORD; great shall be the peace of your children. In justice shall you be established, far from oppression, you shall not fear, from destruction, it cannot come near." Isaiah 54:11-14
Our Lenten journey - Black Saturday: We can wander far from God in our lives, in the Easter Vigil He reminds us that He calls out and is waiting with open arms. Life has ways of knocking us down and for us to put up walls to protect ourselves. God seeks for us to renew our love with Him this Easter season, to accept Our faults and trials, to recognize that all these things He has allowed to make us who we are. Yet without God it will only be another black Saturday without Him in our lives. Are you ready to accept the Risen Lord and be established, far from oppression, to not fear, to be far from destruction, it cannot come near. Accept the free gift and receive Him into your heart.
Dear God, Your Word goes far and wide, it accomplishes what you intended it for. I thank You for all that happens in my life, I thank You for the Joy and the pain. I thank You for the unexpected moments to witness to Your glory. Prayers for mothers that are grieving loss in different ways, help them see that they are living in peace. I ask all of this in the name of Jesus, the One who died and rose from the dead for each of us. Amen.
Mary, Mother of the Risen Lord, pray for us.
