A Novena to St. Dominic for the Discerning Heart
Day 3– Spiritual Vigilance
A teaching from St. Dominic:
“The enemy never sleeps, yet you seem to sleep.”
St. Dominic was known for his dedication to a life of prayer and vigilance, often spending nights in prayer and seeking God’s guidance. This calls us to be vigilant in our spiritual lives, recognizing that complacency can lead to vulnerability. It emphasizes the importance of staying alert and proactive in nurturing our spiritual and ethical values.
“The enemy never sleeps, yet you seem to sleep.”
What areas of your spiritual or personal life need more vigilance and attention?
Areas such as maintaining regular spiritual practices (like prayer or reading scripture), being mindful of negative habits or thoughts, and staying committed to ethical and moral principles might need more vigilance.
“The enemy never sleeps, yet you seem to sleep.”
The Dominican Blessing, from an anonymous 13th-century English Dominican, captures St. Dominic’s timeless call for blessings, healing, and divine guidance.
May God the Father, who made us, bless us.
May God the Son, who redeemed us, send healing into our midst.
May God the Holy Spirit, who gives us life, move within us.
May God give us eyes to see to God, ears to hear God, and hands to bring God’s work into the world.
May we walk with God and preach the word of God to all.
May the angel of peace watch over us and lead us at last by God’s grace to the eternal Kingdom.
Amen
Lord God,
you gave Saint Dominic to the Church of his day
as a great preacher of your truth.
We pray that he will help us in our time
by his merits, his teaching, and his unfailing prayer.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
