“For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”
–Matthew 18:20
Meditation – Step 6: Find God in Others
How can I work on my spiritual life when I’m drowning in the daily grind of work and with the needs of my family?
God says – Bingo! Right There! What if every time your baby cries or every time your child needs you, you hear the voice of God in disguise?
As for your spouse, sacramental marriage is sealed in the name of the Holy Trinity. By definition, God is in the midst of your union.
If we have the eyes to see it, we can live immersed in God’s presence all day every day.
Prayer for the New Year
Remember us, O God; from age to age be our comforter.
You have given us the wonder of time, blessings in days and nights, seasons and years.
Bless your children at the turning of the year and fill the months ahead with the bright hope that is ours in the coming of Christ. You are our God, living and reigning, forever and ever. Amen.
