Reflections from the Benedictine Sisters
St. Mary Monastery, Rock Island, Illinois
Turning Toward the One in whom we find Peace At night I cry aloud in your presence … in the morning my prayer comes before you. (Psalm 88) Who among us has not felt the truth of this? Pain turns us toward God, turns us toward the One in whom we find peace. Today, let's pray for all who spent the night crying aloud. Let's give voice to the mothers and fathers ... children ... small creatures without shelter who need help. Here are a few recent stories from the Benedictine Sisters: |
