"A psalm of David. LORD, who may abide in your tent? Who may dwell on your holy mountain? Whoever walks without blame, doing what is right, speaking truth from the heart; Who does not slander with his tongue, does no harm to a friend, never defames a neighbor; Who disdains the wicked, but honors those who fear the LORD; Who keeps an oath despite the cost, lends no money at interest, accepts no bribe against the innocent. Whoever acts like this shall never be shaken." Psalms 15:1-5
Psalms 15 - Come Holy Ghost. What was your initial thought when you read this Psalm? Mine was, well that isn't me, in so many ways I fall short of the glory of God. But I am reminded that it is not I but Christ within that is capable of doing exactly as the this Psalm reads. The journey into God's heart is a progressive one, happening a little each day. Now go back and read the Psalm with the understanding that it is Christ within that can make the impossible happen. "yet I live, no longer I, but Christ lives in me; insofar as I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God who has loved me and given himself up for me." Galatians 2:20. That is the goal today.

What is God saying to me: My beloved son, it in those little steps each day that you begin to realize what areas of your life need adjusting. It may seem far off in the distance but you are closer than you think. Your prayers are being answered in ways you are not expecting.
Dear Father, I thank You this morning for the gentle reminder of who I am and who I walk with. May I do Christ justice this day even in my weakness, He is still there pushing me on. Father, You know the prayer of my heart and what drives me, I trust in Your divine mercy and grace to fulfill this prayer for nothing is impossible for You. Thank You Lord for this day, thank You for Your grace to go into the world and be me, may I be me with You on the inside, together we are unstoppable. Prayers for all those living with fear, may they see that God only allows what we can handle, may we each learn to walk in faith and not create any ripples upon the waters. In Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Mother of the Living God, pray for us.
St Joesph, pray for us and for the men's day of prayer, March 21, 8:00 am to 12 noon.
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b
