THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY








                                 Thought for the Day # 8 – Monday March 23, 2020


                                                     “Blessing the City”




                         Dear Brothers and Sisters,

                         Blessing the city.

                         In this time of pandemic, may God turn His Face towards us, all of us. May God
                         turn his face towards the sick, towards the families of the sick, those on the
                         front line, physicians, nurses, hospital staff, all the people affected by loss of
                         employment with the slowing down of the economy at all its levels. Those
                         who have jobs, but who are trying to figure out how they will come out of this
                         situation, those who had jobs but now face a real unknown, a total unknown.

                         May God turn His Face towards all of you, towards each one among you in the
                         city.

                         May He make his loving kindness to shine upon you.

                         May He enlighten you and bring peace to your heart.

                         May He strengthen your soul.

                         May He increase your hope.

                            In the name of the Father,

                            and of the Son,

                            and of the Holy Spirit.
