From Father Pat Umberger =: S C R I P T U R E F O R T H E D A Y :=. "And now I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them in your name that you have given me, so that they may be one, as we are one." ~John 17:11 =: M E D I T A T I O N F O R T H E D A Y :=. I can live in the world and yet live apart with God. I can go forth from my secret times of communion with God to the work of the world. To get the spiritual strength I need, my inner life can be lived apart from the world. I can wear the world as a loose garment. Nothing in the world can seriously upset me, as long as my inner life is lived with God. All successful living can arise from this inner life. =: P R A Y E R F O R T H E D A Y :=. I pray that I may live my inner life with God. I pray that nothing will invade or destroy that secret place of peace. .=: S C R I P T U R E S A N D S A I N T O F T H E D A Y := Scriptures: http://www.nccbuscc.org/nab/ Saint of the Day: http://www.americancatholic.org/Features/SaintofDay/ .=: W E P R A Y :=.
