Word for Monday December 15. St. Valerian of Tunisia, Bishop and Martyr.

We remember Cardinal Wamala, 99 th Birthday. “Then Balaam gave voice to his oracle: The utterance of Balaam, son of Beor, the utterance of the man whose eye is true, the utterance of one who hears what God says, and knows what the most high knows…I see him though not now; I behold him, though not near: A star shall advance from Jacob and a staff shall rise from Israel.” Numbers 24:15-17. Venerable Fulton Sheen said, “God walks into your soul with silent step…the more you respond to His gentle pressure, the greater will be your freedom.”

Let us pray, Lord Jesus, the prophets of old truly saw and spoke with God’s anointing, seeing your coming, something great rising from the house of Jacob. You are the fulfillment of all the prophets, the One who was to come. May we live this day in fullness of You, God our Savior, our Lord, and our most tender Friend. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry..
