Never alone.☀️πŸ™πŸ»

                ‘Teach us to number our days, that we may get a heart of wisdom’. (Psalm 90:12)

Glorious action-packed weekend with Ruairi and Daithi. Every minute pure cream!

Last night, darling Daithi tucked up fast asleep, Ruairi and I talked about many things. We ended our valuable mother-son sharing with my urging to please pray my powerful prayer every morning. (Not my first time to offer that sage wisdom!). All of Heaven minding him and his family. What’s not to love!! He promised he would.

Then, this morning’s beautiful Holy Mass and Fr. Larry’s homily all about ‘Prayer’. Ruairi heard every word. God’s amazing Grace for sure. God-incidence.

‘We all need time to pray. Constant rushing about, constant pressures, all seem to suggest that something seems to be missing from our lives. How did Jesus cope with the pressures and the business of His day? He went off to a lonely place. He prayed.

We need to learn from the example of Jesus, how to combine our action-packed lives with prayer’.

Walking with Jesus coz He knows the way. Jesus has to be in it. If He is not in it, it is too hard.

‘Unless we are rooted in Prayer all our practical activities are going to amount to nothing’.               (Bishop Robert Barron)

‘We shall steer safely through every storm, so long as our heart is right, our intention fervent, our courage steadfast, and our trust fixed on God’. (St. Frances de Sales)
