MARY, OUR MODEL IN PRAYER

All praise and glory are Yours, almighty Father:

You have given us Your Son Jesus to save us from sin.

We praise You for choosing Mary to be His mother,

for teaching her to believe Your message,

for helping her to accept Your holy will.

Strengthen us by Your Spirit to be like Mary:

to ponder Your word in our hearts,

to obey Your will,

to love Your Son,

to sing Your praises every day.

Father,

we praise You through Jesus Christ Your Son

in the love of Your Spirit,

for ever and ever.

Amen.

Prayer

1 John Chapter 2:7-11

Beloved, I am writing no new commandment to you but an old commandment that you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word that you have heard. And yet I do write a new commandment to you, which holds true in him and among you, for the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining. Whoever says he is in the light, yet hates his brother, is still in the darkness. Whoever loves his brother remains in the light, and there is nothing in him to cause a fall. Whoever hates his brother is in darkness; he walks in darkness and does not know where he is going because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

A PRAYER FOR SOLITUDE

Jesus, teaching the value of solitude,

You reserved many moments to reflect.

You often departed for solitary places,

Withdrawing Yourself into the wilderness,

Or going up into a mountain to pray.

In loneliness, You spoke to the Father!

Teach me how to pray in seclusion,

To perceive the Father within myself.

Teach me to welcome solitary moments,

To enjoy the solitude within myself,

While listening to Your inspirations.

In solitude, Your mysteries are uncovered!

Amen!
