Prayer Over the Offering for the 29th Sunday in Ordinary Time.

I would have never guessed the definitions of the key words in this week's prayer. Tell me what you think when you listen.

This week's Prayer Over the Offering:

Grant us, O merciful God, that this our offering may find acceptance with you and that through it the wellspring of all blessing may be laid open before us. Through Christ our Lord.

If only we could just relax and let God do his work!

I don't pray prayers of supplication enough. It's easy to pray to God, asking for his favor, however, prayers of supplication require surrender.

If you're a sheep you hear His voice! If you don't think you hear Him, chances are you actually do and these steps will help you not only hear Him, but they will help you recognize the voice of the Shepherd.

We can't be adopted if we aren't redeemed.

Here is the link of the video of +Bishop O'Donnel that I mention in this week's podcast.

This week we Lectio the Liturgy with a great prayer reminding us of God's gentleness.
