We join Br Thulani Ndlovu OMI from Colwyn Bay in Wales, for today's Oblate Reflection on Wednesday the 9th of September 2026.
In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen
Good morning and welcome to our moment to pause with the Oblate family…
Jesus is confusing the people, He does not say try harder to be happy, however he looks at people who are poor, hungry, grieving, rejected and calls them already blessed. How is it so? It goes through our hearts and because the kingdom of God is not far away, it is a matter of becoming true to ourselves and allow God to have space in our hearts. Let us bring our empty hearts or places and trust that he will meet each of us where we want him.
We offer our intentions today to the Lord as we pray
who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Amen.
Thank you for joining the Oblate family for a moment to pause this morning. May God continue to work with each of us this day.
