“Thus says the Lord: “This command I gave my people, ‘Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people; and walk in all
the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.’ But they did not obey or incline their ear, but walked in their own counsels and the stubbornness of their evil hearts, and went backward and not forward.” Jeremiah 7:23-24. St. JoseMaria Escriva said, “St. Joseph was an
ordinary sort of man, on whom God relied to do great things. He did exactly what the Lord wanted him to do, in each and every event that went to make up his life.”

Let us pray, Lord God You invite us to obey Your voice, walk in ways You command us so that we may be Your God and that things may be well with us. We are sorry that at times we do not obey You, we do not listen to Your voice, we follow our own counsels and remain stubborn, going backwards and not forwards to You. Forgive us, Lord! Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
