Thought of the Day November 3, 2016
“Everything, even sweeping, scraping
vegetables, weeding a garden and waiting on the sick could be a prayer, if it
were offered to God.” (St. Martin De Porres) Simple but profound! It is the
same “little way” of St. Therese of the Little Flower. What if we would begin practicing
this simple life of holiness? Paul talks about praying unceasingly. Paul also says: Whatever you do in word or
action, do it in the name of Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through
him. Praying while we are doing simple, ordinary tasks during the day keeps us
connected to the source of all things, God. It transforms the ordinary to the
extraordinary. It sanctifies the menial moment to a grace moment. Just a
simple, sincere prayer!
