Picture 1:    Our Father on Sunday

Proverbs 8:   "The LORD possessed me, the beginning of his ways,  the forerunner of his prodigies of long ago; from of old I was poured forth,  at the first, before the earth." 

Romans 5:  Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith to this grace in which we stand, and we boast in hope of the glory of God.

John 16:  But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth.  He will not speak on his own, but he will speak what he hears, and will declare to you the things that are coming.

 

 

Be certain to do something that gives you joy – reading, music, playing with the pet,  holding the baby – at least once a day.  It makes getting up the next day easier.

The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister 

 

 

Another Reminder for Trinity Sunday, June 15, 2025

Malachi 3:  But for you who fear my name, there will arise the sun of justice with its healing rays.
2 Thessalonians 3:  Rather, we wanted to present ourselves as a model for you, so that you might imitate us.
Luke 21:  Remember, you are not to prepare your defense beforehand, for I myself shall give you a wisdom in speaking that all your adversaries will be powerless to resist or refute.

 

To live is to venture beyond our fears to taste the sweetness of the unknown.
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister
