Our Morning Offering – 11 March – Thy Grace

Our Morning Offering – 11 March – Wednesday of the Second Week of Advent

Thy Grace – a Lenten Prayer By St John Henry Newman (1801-1890)

O my God, suffer me still, bear with me in spite of my waywardness, perverseness and ingratitude! I improve very slowly but really, I am moving onto heaven, or at least I wish to move. Only give me Thy grace meet me with Thy grace, I will, through Thy grace, do…

Our Morning Offering – 8 March – Friday after Ash Wednesday

Thy Grace – a Lenten Prayer By Blessed John Henry Newman

O my God, suffer me still, bear with me in spite of my waywardness, perverseness and ingratitude! I improve very slowly but really, I am moving onto heaven, or at least I wish to move. Only give me Thy grace meet me with Thy grace, I will, through Thy grace, do what I can and Thou shall perfect it for me. Then shall I have happy days, in Thy Presence and in the sight and adoration of Thy five Sacred Wounds. Amen

My Weekly Lenten Prayer: For Blessing the Work of our Hands Our Lord and God, Not many of us “put a sickle to standing grain” any longer. The work of our hands seldom carries that sure and sudden of a reward. Our work rarely consists of golden grain cut, cleaned, sifted, crushed, baked, eaten, and enjoyed. Even symbolically. Instead it seems our work is sifted into electronic cubbyholes. It travels from distant hand to distant hand. We know not the needs and hurts and wants and joys of the people blessed by the works of our hands. There are far too many miles between our hands and theirs. Please O God, Show us that the work we perform is needed, wanted, appreciated. Most of all by You! Our Lord and God, We place our work in your hands. We consecrate it to you. Invest your Spirit in it. Take these cups I offer, these emails I send, these words I teach, these humans I care for, these medicines I dispense, these miles I drive, these people I see and serve, these nails I pound, these ditches I dig, claims I process, papers I shuffle, meals I prepare, clothes I stitch, widgets I make, messes I clean, words I write, laws I pass, people I protect, animals I tend, and planet I steward and connect them with real people and needs in your world. Bring provision and justice and peace and contentment from what I offer. Take the work of my hands and like a glistening drop of rain in our world’s rainbow, quench thirsts and bring beauty to your people.

This Is Our Accepted Time By Fr Michael Gannon (1927– 2017)

This is our accepted time, This is our salvation. Prayer and fasting are our hope, Penance, our vocation.

God of pardon and of love, Mercy past all measure, You alone can grant us peace, You, our holy treasure.

Lord, look down upon Your sons, Look upon their yearning. Man…
