St Martin of Vertou is an example of attracting believers by his simple goodness, reminding us to persevere. “May my strengths and my weaknesses keep me on Your path, oh Lord.”
Read Ezekiel 21: The Sword of the Lord
RIAY Day 297: The Sorrowful & Glorious Mysteries
Meditations for Each Day pg 426 “Lead Us Not Into Temptation” excerpt… “we should never go voluntarily into an occasion of sin”… “if we fail to recognise our own frailty and expose ourselves voluntarily to the risk of committing sin, God is not obliged to work a miracle to save us”
The “Fall” season is definitely upon us. The tree color is fading, soon they will fall to the ground, turning into fertilizer for the land, which in turn will feed the tree come spring. It is time to collect the seeds needed for spring planting. Time to clear off and put to bed the earth of our garden, readying it for the fallow time of rest and renewal. “The Circle of Life” never stops. All things begin, mature, produce, and die. Each stage contributes to the next. Each stage has specific purpose. Each stage is necessary for the success of the next.
As a human, I have entered into the Fall of my life. It is time for me to clear off the debris/waste and turn it into fertilizer for the next generation. It is time to ready myself for the next stage in the circle.
Know you are prayed for.
