From Father Pat Umberger .=: S C R I P T U R E F O R T H E D A Y :=. "So we have known and believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and those who abide in love abide in God, and God abides in them." ~John 4:16 .=: M E D I T A T I O N F O R T H E D A Y :=. A consciousness of God's presence as one who loves us can make all life different. The consciousness of God's love can promote the opening of our whole being to God. It can bring wonderful relief from the cares and worries of our daily lives. Relief can bring peace and peace can bring contentment. We can try to walk in God's love. We can have a contentment that no one can take from us. We can feel sure of God's unfailing love and care for us and for all God's children. There is freedom and serenity in those who walk in God's love, held safe in God's loving care. .=: P R A Y E R F O R T H E D A Y :=. I pray that I may walk in God's love. I pray that, as I go, I may feel the spring of God's power in my steps and the joy of God's love in my heart. .=: 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! May God Bless you and those you love, and keep you safe!
