One Minute Reflection – November 24 

Blessed are the poor in spirit……the kingdom of heaven is theirs…..Mt 5:3

REFLECTION – “There are many who, applying themselves insistently to prayer and good deeds, engage in much abstinence and many mortifications of their bodies but they are scandalized and quickly roused to anger by a single word which seems injurious to their person, or by some other things which might be taken from them. These are not poor in spirit because a person who is truly poor in spirit hates himself and loves those who strike him on the cheek “….St Francis of Assisi

PRAYER – Loving Father, help me to use become :”poor in spirit” to put everyone before myself – even my enemy. Teach me to set my heart on heavenly things and not those of this world Saints and angels, Mary Mother, Pray for me! Amen
