Parable and Conscience Meditation February 7

Apostolate  7 February

Yet we properly and fully appreciate our vocation only when we remember that every vocation in Christ supports and sustains every other in building up the Body of Christ in love. Thus we must be open to receive inspiration and enrichment from all other vocations. Thus we must be open to receive inspiration and enrichment from all other vocations (Const. 10.7).

Lord, Jesus Christ,

with your Father and Holy Spirit

you once brought me from nothingness into life.

I bless you that I am so wonderfully made.

By my Baptism,

you called me out of darkness

to live in your redeeming light.

At your Table,

I praise the victory of your Death and Resurrection in me!

Let me take my place of service

beside my brothers and sisters in the Church.

Keep me always aware of the gifts you have given me

and ready to use them with love until you return.

For within, I bear your Kingdom,

your Power and your Glory

      for the sake of the world.    Amen.


It is when torches meet that fire blazes.  (Tanzania)
