6/7/20 Through 6/13/20

6/7/20 Through 6/13/20

Sunday

Oneness meaning much to You

Reflecting, One in Three is true

The family is a model of

His trinitary gift of love.

A total gift of love to show

Just how far, they each would go

To bring about the common good

As every holy family should.

Monday

From God, the source, all blessings come.

No mind can grasp, nor wisdom plumb 

The depth of love, nor wealth of grace

That earthly riches can't replace.

Regardless, how the world sees

The virtues that the Lord, will please

Are those that Jesus lived each day,

And bid us follow in His way.

For if we do, a light will shine

And when our ways, with His align,

His blessing find, anew outpoured,

And in this way, our God adored.

Tuesday

A little more You ask of each

By giving more, You deign to teach

That trust is what we need to grow,

Then watch as all the blessings flow.

Running out, or running over,

Love of God is that which drove her.

Giving when the store was low

Allowed her weakened faith to grow.

Wednesday

My Jesus, Lord, I trust in You.

Be all I am and all I do.

Let me join each day with You,

And find each day Your love anew.

So far below Your lofty state

Each morn I come and grace await.

A thirsty ground awaiting dew,

A humble soul, awaiting You.

Inspire Lord, and change somehow

My heart of stone and grace allow

To tenderize and drive away

All befouling up this clay.

Make my soul attentive to 

Its every gift and grace from You,

And squander not a single one

Till time for me, at last, is done.

Thursday

A gift of love, encouragement

And willingness to then be sent.

Each leader needs a brother who

Will give him strength to follow through.

A man to give a strong, Amen.

A man of courage there, and when,

The persecution comes his way

Will waiver not, and never stray.

Friday

For purity and holy trust

Abandon all the thoughts of lust.

Begin to see with eyes anew

The gift the body is for you.

A gift of total self to give,

A way of love to learn and live.

A joy beyond all pleasure known,

To give oneself to one alone.

The way our maker planned of old.

The two made one, in bonds of gold.

And as the Trinity is three,

From love, new life springs forth from thee.

What joy to share the Father's love

And join with all the saints above

To give like Jesus, totally,

And let the Spirit set us free.

Saturday

Lord, over me, Your cloak be thrown

Your will and grace, to me, be known.

No turning back I want for me,

The plow and ox, I offer Thee.

My yes is meant immutably,

For only truth has set me free.

No more I need than yes or no,

If You just light the way to go.

The Virgin, brightest star above,

Her yes, the greatest word of love.

And grace to all, through Her  is poured

Where Christ be evermore adored.

I want my yes to be like Her's,

A yes no matter what occurs.

The plow and ox be gone for me

My all in all, be only Thee.
