Too bad I can't see it. Sometimes we are too blind to see that we are blessed. We have countless tings to thank god for. Hope you see it today.

Help us in trust in you when pain overwhelms us. Teach us to console others in the ways you console us.

When Jesus started his public ministry, the very first thing he said was Repent. And the second was Follow me. We may be having the romantic notion of "finding my destiny" or "making my mark in the world" while "trusting in Jesus" to make my dreams come true and fix the problems of my plan. It's not at all what Jesus says. he says repent, to change. to transform my outlook from being master into follower, to think as he thinks, to act as he acts, to drop my human logic and adopt his divine wisdom. Giving up control is not easy and may take a lifetime to learn. But rest assured. our perfection our fulfilment and joy will be found in the measure that we follow jesus. let us pray for this grace today.
