Daily Thoughts - Make God Known
2739 For St. Paul, this trust is bold, founded on the prayer of the Spirit in us and on the faithful love of the Father who has given us his only Son.31 Transformation of the praying heart is the first response to our petition.
Do we love God on our terms, our direction and our guidance of what we seek or do we love God on His terms, His direction and His guidance. Within the space of time God reveals Himself within prayer and He reveals others who have taken up their cross and became obedient to the cross. Our culture would have us believe the journey is easy and without difficulty but in fact the opposite is true. It requires effort, diligence and an obedient heart to follow Christ. Within everyday life is the keys to Heaven and an obedient heart to the Father of Heaven.The Israelites went from having it easy to having their world transformed becoming slaves to Pharaoh. Would this change their hearts to become bitter and unloving or would this transform them into the image and likeness of Jesus. Our faith journey is much like them, understand that God will form you with Your life, trust in where He takes You. The outcome leads to victory that knows no bounds nor will never end.
Dear Father, we sit and listen to the still of the morning along with the teachings of the Church. We have been given much and to whom much is given much is expected. Transform this heart of mine to be more like Yours, help us to slow down and listen. Prayers for a fruitful day that produces the fruit You are nurturing within. Love Your son.
Mary, Mother of Love, Pray for us.
St Joesph, Pray for us.
St Patrick, Pray for us.
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b
