The Springtime of Prayer in every season.

garden in Springtime: 

SPRING TIME AND PRAYER.

In springtime, we see new life budding-flowers which have seemingly not grown all winter suddenly burst into a beautiful flower.  We can walk past these flowers and give them not a thought, or we can appreciate their perfume, colour and texture.  More importantly, we can link our own spirits with God the creator and thank Him for the wonder of creation.

OUR OWN PRAYER?

What about the springtime of our prayer life?  Does our prayer life with Jesus need fresh soil or perhaps some extra watering?  Has it, like the flowers, been steadily growing?  Whatever the position, we can always start afresh with Jesus. Perhaps a prayer journal may be of assistance to you.

 With Jesus, there is always more growing to do and He invites us to become that beautiful flower which others can appreciate (perhaps learn to appreciate the God within ourselves) and which He, the master gardener is creating. 

 Let us redouble our efforts to use all the graces and blessings the Church offers, especially the gift of the ‘Year of the Priest’ Indulgences, the precious gift of the Sacrament of Reconciliation, and receive in abundance the many graces and blessings the Mass has to offer. 

 Let our hearts yearn for Him and let us be filled with gratitude to God the giver.

     How will YOU grow this week?
