Thought for the day: What do we do with the inheritance of St Patrick today? From the surviving evidence, we see a man totally open to God’s call, grounded firmly in the Word of God and prayer, full of generosity and hard work. Legends about him abound, of course, but the spread of such accounts tells its own story about the impact he made. We too are called to the very same mission, rooted in Scripture and prayer, lived in great generosity of spirit. Prayer: Renew in our hearts and lives the spirit of St Patrick, whose feast we keep.

From Saint Patricks Breastplate
I arise today, through God’s strength to pilot me: God’s might to uphold me,
God’s wisdom to guide me,
God’s eye to look before me,
God’s ear to hear me,
God’s word to speak for me,
God’s hand to guard me,
God’s way to lie before me,
God’s shield to protect me,
God’s host to secure me:
against snares of devils,
against temptations of vices,
against inclinations of nature,
against everyone who shall wish me ill,
afar and anear, alone and in a crowd

Lent: Pray, Fast, Give
