Pause + Pray

Imagine the Joy You Can Have

Reflect

May this prayer based on the expression of my parish priest Father Cid, open you to new possibilities: “Imagine the joy you can have!” 


Pray

Dear God,
Today, help me
release 
the tight hold
on 
my dark burdens
so light can reach
into my heart.
Redirect my gaze
to the magic that exists
all around me,

starting with the miracles
in nature. 

As I begin my day,
opening my front door,

let me also open the door
to joy.


Act

How has your life been influenced by suggestions from people from your own faith community? What did they say? Can you practice one of those suggestions today?
