Lectio: Lk 6.12-19

“In those days he [Jesus] departed for the mountain to pray, and he spend the whole night in prayer to God.” Lk 6.12

“ O God, You want us to stay in touch with You for You are the source of wisdom, peace and our strength.

I remember Jesus often spent a long time in prayer to You - He had a basic need to do so!
Grant that I may follow the example of Jesus and pray to You as an important part of my daily spirituality.

I ask this of You who lives and reigns with Jesus and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever. Amen.

Operatio: Reflect on “Prayer” - it is communion with God, it is the lifting of our hearts and minds to God - we can make our whole day and everything we do each day - a prayer by simply saying the Morning Offering. Resolve to make the Morning Offering every day.

Tomorrow’s readings: Lk 6.20-26
