Thought for the day: Jeremiah, who knew a thing or two about the human condition, wrote: The heart is devious above all else; it is perverse, who can understand it? (Jer 17:9) A healthy introspection is essential, if we are to become free from inherited drives and free for service. Prayer: Lord Jesus, let me know myself and know you, and desire nothing except you alone. Let me hate myself and love you. Let me do everything for your sake. Let me humble myself and exalt you. Let me think of nothing except you. Let me die to myself and live in you. Let me accept whatever happens as from you. Let me banish self and follow you, and ever desire to follow you.
Pope Francis on X: When we make space for the Lord, we are able to open ourselves to all of Creation and to every creature. We then understand that life is a gift from the Father, who loves us deeply and desires that we belong to Him and to one another.
Songs of Praise with Michael Fitzgerald and others continues in St Mary’s Church, on Monday, 6.00 – 7.00pm. All welcome.

Reflection – Faith and works
A fruit tree may be teeming with blossoms, but if it doesn’t produce fruit it is barren.
A lamp may be studded with diamonds, but if it doesn’t give light it is worthless.
And a faith that doesn’t result in good works is dead. The fruit of prayer is faith.
The fruit of faith is love.
The fruit of love is service.
And the fruit of service is peace.
