Prayer
Grant me, O Lord, to know what is worth knowing, to love what is worth loving, to praise what delights you most, to value what is precious in your sight. Do not let me judge by what I see, nor pass sentence according to what I hear, but to judge rightly between things that differ, and above all to search out and to do what pleases you. Amen

Reflections by Father Paul Beukes OMI
Life is difficult. It is not always easy and with it can come heartache and pain. When we are in pain, we may feel that we are not able to prevail over it. That is why faith-believing without seeing or knowing- is essential in times of desolation. With faith, we trust, and we do not give up. Therefore, in our walk with God, let us continue to trust God with our lives, and not give in easily to despondency in moments of sorrow.
