It's Friday!

Again, from the Handbook of Prayer's: Student Edition, by the Midwest Theological Forum
May 11: Welcoming the Magi
"'Going into the house, they saw the child with Mary, His mother.' Our Lady is always near her Son. The Magi are not received by a king on a high throne, but by a child in the arms of His Mother.  Let us ask the Mother of God, who is our mother, to prepare for us the way that leads to the fullness of love...Her sweet heart knows the surest path for finding Christ."

Let us offer to our Mother today: A visit to a poor person to communicate our Lady's concern for that person.


In this offering today, remember that a poor person may not necessarily be one who is only "without money." There can be many different kinds of poverty. Material goods, spiritual poverty, poverty of love, of joy, etc.  Seek someone who may be depressed, or unloved, or lonely, and let them know that Mary loves them, and is praying for them. :)

And have a wonderful weekend!


Be Holy!
