Word for Thursday after Ash Wednesday, January 15.

“Moses spoke to the people, saying . . .  “If you obey the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you this day, by loving the Lord your God, by walking in his ways, and by keeping his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, then you shall live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land which you are entering to take possession of it.” Deuteronomy 30:16. Mother St. Theresa said, “Don’t give in to discouragement. If you are discouraged, it is a sign of pride because it shows you trust in your own powers. Never bother about people’s opinions. Be obedient to truth, for with humble obedience you will never be disturbed.”

Let us pray, Father, Your Son has done all that He needed to do to make us fitting to be in Your site. Send us the Spirit of Your Son that we may fulfill the part of our bargain; that we may never lose out on the blessings at offer. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
