Praise and glory
to you God our loving Father!
Guide us,
send us the Holy Spirit
to discern your presence
in Jesus Christ
in every present moment
amid the growing modern thoughts
in the world.
Jesus said to his disciples: “As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be in the days of the Son of Man; they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage up to the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all (Luke 17:26-27).
In this modern age of social media that have shrunk the world into a global village that have also spread so many lies that poison so many with the overstretching of rights to life without any regard for others like the weakest as well as to your Divine plan in Creation, many have blurred your love and kindness advocating abortion, divorce, and in vitro fertilization for test tube babies, now comes the SOGIE Equality Bill in our Congress. Make us heed the words of John, the Beloved Disciple of Jesus, who is also the Elder reminding us in the first reading today "Anyone who is so 'progressive' as not to remain in the teaching of the Christ does not have God; whoever remains in the teaching has the Father and the Son" (1John 9).
Grant us,
dear Father,
the wisdom and freedom
to trust more in you
in accepting your invitation
to live fully,
wide awake
in every present moment,
finding you in our
hearts
and on the face of
every person
filled with joy
not with anger,
guilt,
and
fears.
Amen.
