“Give thanks to the Lord for he is good, his mercy endures forever. My strength and my courage is the Lord, and he has been my savior.  The joyful shout of victory, in the tents of the just.” Psalm 118:1,14-15. St. Vincent de Paul said, “God allows us to give rise to the practice of two beautiful virtues: perseverance, which leads us to attain the goal, and constancy, which helps us to overcome difficulties.” Let us pray, Lord God, truly You are my strength and my courage.  You are my light when life looks dark. In you I persevere when I am discouraged.  You Yourself are my rock, You are my way, You are the love in my heart. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
