Birthday greetings to s-i-l, Terese S.
31 yrs ago, we adopted our second sibling group, Josh & Tom. They’ve grown into good men who are working on overcoming their struggles.
Today, we look at the Conversion of St. Paul. God turned Paul onto the right path from the wrong path. We invite God to correct our direction when necessary. All-knowing Lord, You alone know what is best for me; let me welcome all opportunities You send to follow You, even when it is difficult.
Meditations for Each Day, pg. 33 Mediocrity Mt 5:48, Lev 11:44. This meditation holds real conviction. Thanks to a VDF for bringing it to my attention.
Scripture Reading for Day 25
•Cultivating a Quiet Heart, Isaiah 32:17, The work of justice will be peace; the effect of justice, calm and security forever.n
•New Beginnings, Philippians 3:13-14, Brothers, I for my part do not consider myself to have taken possession. Just one thing: forgetting what lies behind but straining forward to what lies ahead,1 4I continue my pursuit toward the goal, the prize of God’s upward calling, in Christ Jesus.l
If you haven’t been journaling the readings each time for what it takes to cultivate a quiet heart or start a new beginning, you might want to consider it. Having a plan written out helps one stay on track and keep going when things become difficult.
Not feeling the greatest today. I managed a very peaceful Adoration. Even with the cloud and dull ache in my head. I do not see the medications I was prescribed as making any improvements.
Hope your day is enlightening and restful.
Know you are prayed for.
