From Father Pat Umberger .=: S C R I P T U R E F O R T H E D A Y :=. "Your kingdom come. Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven." ~Matthew 6:10 .=: M E D I T A T I O N F O R T H E D A Y :=. "Your will be done" can be our often repeated prayer. And in the willing of God's will there can be gladness. We can delight to do God's will because when we do, all our life can go better and everything will tend to work well for us in the long run. When we are honestly trying to do God's will and humbly accepting the results, nothing can seriously hurt us. Those of us who accept the will of God in our lives may not inherit the earth, but we can inherit real peace of mind. .=: P R A Y E R F O R T H E D A Y :=. I pray that I may have a yielded will. I pray that my will may be attuned to the will of God. .=: 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 :=. We pray for unity in our country and that we may build a Culture of Life. We pray for the safety of our troops, their safe return and their families at home. We pray for a deep and profound respect for life, and for the courage and willingness to stand up for life. We pray for one another, for those who have asked our prayers and for those who need our prayers the most. Have a good day! .=: A D A I L Y B L E S S I N G :=. http://message.viditalk.com/ver12/showvideo.asp?vid=38058.65105 For a video blessing from Father Pat, just click the link above.
