Thanks Mary for the reflection. For me, words or phrase that draws my attention normal changes depending on my situation when i pray our father prayer. For now, its ‘deliver us from evil’…and ‘lead us not to temptation ‘…..and this is because I need his help to defend me from the evil one and also keep me strong against temptations…

Hello, Mary. The words that always speak to me are THY will be done. It helps me to remember that it’s not what I want but His will that I should pray for. I appreciate that you share your life with us. I learn so much from your experiences. Thank you.

Mary, the image from the first paragraph made me cry. Your writing reminded me of a similar moment with my grandpa. I was an adult visiting him. He had been steadily declining in health for months. I walked into his room and he was breathing shallowly; his right arm was flailing wildly. I immediately grabbed his arm, closed my eyes and started reciting the Lords Prayer. Within 5 minutes his breathing calmed and his arm stopped flailing. He passed a few minutes later. It was a beautiful moment that I got to share with my grandpa. It was truly God’s presence, grace and love…on earth as it is in heaven. You inspire with your Holy Spirit words weekly and I am so grateful. As for me, I have been struggling with “as we forgive those who trespass against us”. I will continue to ask for clarity and peace for that. God bless you Mary.

Hi Mary,
I would like to correspond with you. From reading about ;yourself, I find that we have a lot in common. I work as an Administrator assistant for a Catholic Church, do a little writing myself and volunteer at different places.
May Jesus and Mary bless you for the good work that you do!

Thy will be done. I pray those words daily because I’m at a crossroads. I have to follow those words with “not mine” because I need to remember who has the perfect plan. St. Theresa seems to be a person for me to study. That’s what gives me joy in your reflections: the names and places you pass on to us that help you in your research! God bless you!
