of the Christian’s ordinary duties.
Grant that I too may learn to turn all the circumstances
and events of my life into occasions of loving you
and serving the Church, the Pope and all souls
with joy and simplicity, lighting up the pathways
of this earth with faith and love.
Deign to grant me, through the intercession of Saint Josemaria,

“Your daily encounter with Christ takes place right where you work,
where your aspirations and your affections are.
That is where we must seek sanctity, in the midst of the most material things of the earth, serving God and all humankind.
Heaven and earth seem to merge, my daughters and sons, on the horizon.
But where they really meet is in your hearts,
when you strive for holiness in your everyday lives….”
Josemaría Escrivá, from the homily:
Passionately Loving the World, October 8, 1967.
Take care and God bless you and your loved ones!
