THE COUPLE THAT PRAYS TOGETHER STAYS TOGETHER.
Fr. Johnny Doherty, C.Ss.R.
November 10th – 16th 2024
Christian Trust
Jesus said to his disciples: “This poor widow has put more in than all who have contributed to the treasury”. Today we judge the importance of things by how much they cost. And we also judge the importance of people by how wealthy they are.
THE COUPLE THAT PRAYS TOGETHER STAYS TOGETHER.
Sunday October 13th 2013
Thanksgiving
Jesus said: “Were not all ten made clean? The other nine, where are they? It seems that no one has come back to give praise to God, except this foreigner”. One of the worst experiences of human living is that of being taken for granted – and it is also one of the most common. It reduces us to being objects of service to others and can easily result in resentment. But those who suffer most from ingratitude are those who are ungrateful. They become very self-centred and gradually lose touch with the wonder of life. They cannot smell the beauty of the flowers or hear the wonderful song of the birds. They don’t notice the sun shining or appreciate the greatness of the changing seasons and the magnificence of the world we live in. And they miss the real experience of being loved. They are living dead. Come alive through gratitude.
Fr. Johnny Doherty, C.Ss.R.
Lord, our help and guide,
make your love the foundation of our lives.
May our love for you express itself

We ask this through Christ our Lord.
During the day, when apart
Lord, accept the prayers and gifts
we offer you in faith and love.
May our commitment of marriage bring us to your glory.
We ask this through Christ Our Lord.
Evening/Night Prayer together
Almighty Father, your love for us surpasses
all our hopes and dreams
May our love for each other give us a share in your life.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
