Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is with thee. Luke 1:26-43 In the sixth month of Elizabeth's pregnancy God sent the angel Gabriel to a town in Galilee named Nazareth.  He had a message for a young woman promised in marriage to a man named Joseph, who was a descendant of King David. Her name was Mary........ As we honour Mary the mother of our Lord and Master, Jesus Christ in the month of October.  May she intercede for us. Songs dedicated to Mary: Hail Thou Star of Ocean As the Dewy Shades of even Fading Still As

Fools say to themselves there is no God. There is no God' They are all corrupt, and they have done terrible things.... Psalm 53 You have to fight to get what is yours.  It is not going to come to you naturally.  God is the guiding force we need to commune with Him for guidance.

LORD, You have examined me and you know me. You know everything I do, from far away you understand all my thoughts. You see me, whether I am working or resting; you know all my actions. Even before I speak, you already know what I want to say. You are all around me on every side; you protect me with your power. Your knowledge of me is too deep; it is beyond my understanding......  Psalm 139: Psaume 23

"LORD, if I argued my case with you, you would prove to be right. Yet I must question you about matters of justice. Why are the wicked so prosperous? Why do dishonest people succeed? You plant them, they take root; they grow and bear fruit. They always speak well of you, yet they do not really care about you. But, LORD, you know me; you see what I do, and how I love you. Jer. 12:1-3 Mass readings for the day Saint Francis of Assisi
