May I pray for you?
I'm rotating between the blog and Facebook to make sure I ask every day, and to keep from sounding like a nag.
The first thing I've come to know, is there are a lot of hidden crosses. It is an honor to be allowed to share in such stories of strength, courage and fortitude. My heart rends for some of these individuals. It feels inadequate to simply pray, and yet it is all any of us can do given what some of these people face, and in reality, it is what we are asked to do. Also, I know, God's heart rends more than mine, and He can and does act, and is acting.
Today, I read several posts by people who declared themselves emancipated from organized religion because they wanted to be more in connection with God. Maybe they have that grace, but going to adoration, I cannot get closer, and I know absent the sacraments, (as I know even with them), it is easy to drift. It is easy to fall into talking to myself. It is easy to fall asleep.
However, the names help me anchor. I have a red book in which I write every name of every person and every intention each day. Leave your name and/or intention in a like, the com box or email. Every day but Sunday, the offer will be given.
So may I pray for you?
