Lord God, our light and our salvation,
We praise you for your gifts of life and faith.
We thank you for the desire
that you have planted in our hearts,
our yearning to see your face.
Help us to meet you in prayer,
to walk in your ways,
and to speak to others of our joy
and consolation in your presence.
Give us faithfulness in this present life
so that we may come to know
and praise your beauty,
with all our brothers and sisters,
in the life to come.

Smaoineamh
Christians rarely ask themselves the question: What have I failed to do? The call to repentace is not merely a call to turn away from evil, but a call to ‘produce the fruits’ of good living. That is why it is relevant for everybody.
Jesus’ call to repentance disturbs us, and we don’t like to be disturbed. We want out quiet life, a life which may contain a lot of selfishness. We may not be guilty of great evil, yet we could be very selfish, very demanding, very inconsiderate. But we don’t want to know, much less do anything, about this side of our nature. We are being called from being self-centred, to become other-centred and God-centred.
