THE WIDOW'S MITE

As Jesus looked up, he saw rich people putting their offerings
into the treasury; then he happened to notice a poverty-strictly
widow putting in two small coins, and he said, 'I tell you truly,
this poor widow has put in more than any of them; for these have
all contributed money they had over, but she from the little she
had put in all she had to live on.'

The Year Gone Beyond Recall

My Father in heaven, you know me through and through.
You search my heart. You know everything about me.
Help me to offer my life to You, for if my life is placed
in Your hands, You will direct my steps. As we approach
the end of the year, be with me.

LOOKING FOR THE MASTER

Naturally stupid are all men who have not known God
and who, from the good things are seen, have not been
able to discover Him-who-is, or by studying the works.
have failed to recognise the Artificer Fire however, or
wind, or the swift air, the sphere of the stars, impetuous
water, heaven's lamps, are what they have held to be the
gods who govern the world.

Psalm 19

Heavenly Father, you are the Alpha and Omega, You created all things to your pleasure.

You created man and gave him dominion over all things.  Give me the wisdom, and

 knowledge to appreciate all things created by You. May all creatures worship You.

THE BEAUTY OF WISDOM

In Wisdom is a spirit intelligent, holy, unique, manifold, subtle,
agile, clear, unstained, certain, not boastful, loving the good, keen,
unhampered, beneficent, kindly, firm, secure, tranquil, all-powerful,
all-seeing and pervading all spirits, though they be intelligent, pure
and very subtle.
For Wisdom is mobile beyond all motion, and she penetrates all
things by reason of her purity.

Heavenly Father, give me Wisdom that my ways may be blameless, that I may be humble, kind, intelligent, and pure in heart.  Your Wisdom is beyond all motion, and penetrates
all things.

SEEK THE LORD IN SIMPLICITY OF HEART

Love virtue, you who are judges on earth,
let honesty prompt your thinking about the Lord,
seek him in simplicity of heart;
since he is to be found by those who do not put him
to the test, he shows himself to those who do not
distrust him.
But selfish intentions divorce from God;
and Omnipotence, put to the test, confounds the foolish.
No, Wisdom will never make its way into a crafty soul
nor stay in a bod that is in debt to sin;
the holy spirit of instructions shuns deceit,
it stands aloof from reckless purposes,
is taken aback when iniquity appears.  Readings

The year is gone beyond recall

Loving Father, judge of the earth,  reveal yourself to me. Give me simplicity of heart.
Father I trust in your unconditional love for me.  You are OMNIPOTENCE, guide
me grand me Wisdom that I may seek You in earnest.  You alone are LORD, the
OMNIPOTENCE, OMNIPRESENCE, OMNISCIENCE.

LORM MAKE ME A GOOD STEWARD

"Now that my master is taking the stewardship from me, what am
I to do? Dig? I am not strong enough.  To begging? I should be too
ashamed.

Ah, I know that I will do to make sure that when I am dismissed
from office there will be some to welcome me in their homes."

Here I am Lord

Loving Father, help me to be a good steward. Guide me, guide my steps.
Help me recognise the need to respect all your creatures, and all things
created by you.  Teach me to be wise and prudent in Jesus name I pray.

WE BELONG TO GOD

The life and death of each of us has its influence on others; if we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord,
so that alive or dead we belong to the Lord.
This explains why Christ both died and came to life: it
was so that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the
living.  This explains why Christ both died and came to life:
It was so that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.
This is why you should never pass judgement on a brother or
treat him with contempt, as some of you have done....... Readings

BLESS THOSE WHO PERSECUTE YOU
