Often we keep our faith hidden away, but simply telling of God’s help brings light to the world. Today, don’t hesitate to share the truth of how your faith has guided you.

Honor St. Thérèse of Lisieux today by thinking of all the small things you do to try to be the best and most loving person you can be.

No matter how much we practice patience, no matter how much we pray, sometimes the morning arrives when we must take the action we’ve been contemplating—and it can be scary.

Think about the words of Mechthild of Magdeburg: “The Holy Spirit is our harpist/And all strings/Which are touched in Love/Must sound.”

Who is struggling with some physical ailment in your life? It could be mental health, as well. Today, don’t hesitate to reach out.

Grief cannot be outrun. Let today’s prayer both honor your mourning and remind you of the joy in God’s heart.
