"Scars In Heaven" - by Casting Crowns
"The only scars in heaven, they won't belong to me and you
There'll be no such thing as broken, and all the old will be made new
And the thought that makes me smile now, even as the tears fall down
Is that the only scars in heaven are on the hands that hold you now."
May they Rest In Peace.

The Lord delights in those who serve Him
MUSIC
- My Soul is at Rest from the "Simply Taize" album
- Doria (Piano Version) by Olafur Arnalds
SCRIPTURE: Psalm 33: 11
Trust is the posture of the Christian. We must make every effort to trust in the heart of Jesus. Age to age He has a plan for us. His broken wounded heart knows are needs and knows our brokenness. Let us place our trust in Him.
GOD MOMENT
Jesus I trust in You!
MUSIC
"Love Divine, All Loves Excelling"
"O Sacred Heart, O Love Divine"
MATTHEW 24: 42
What sits on the front burner of your life? What commands your attention and influences your thoughts and actions? The message of Jesus is the invitation for us to place our heavenly Father in that space. To keep watch for His presence and love that is with us throughout our day. Javier explains it well in today's reflection....

MUSIC
- How Can I Keep From Singing?
19th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year B
SCRIPTURE: John 6: 41-51
Learning more and understanding the depth of the gift of the Eucharist awakens in us a better way of loving and living. We are no longer distracted by our own doubts and fears. We are no longer confused by the falsehoods by which others might try to manipulate us. We are no longer in this by ourselves. Jesus is present in us and to us and we are united in Him and by Him.
MUSIC: "Bread of Life" - -Rory Cooney
"I Am the Living Bread that came down from heaven."
The 4th Joyful Mystery - The Presentation of the Lord in the Temple
(Malachi 3: 1-4)
Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

BELOVEDNESS
by Sarah Kroger
Lyrics :
You’ve owned your fear and all your self-loathing
You’ve owned the voices inside of your head
You’ve owned the shame and reproach of your failure
It’s time to own your belovedness
You’ve owned your past and how it’s defined you
You’ve owned ev’rything everybody else says
It’s time to hear what your Father has spoken
It’s time to own your belovedness
He says you’re mine
I smiled when I made you
I find you beautiful in ev’ry way
My love for you is fierce and unending
I’ll come to find you, whatever it takes
My beloved
You’ve owned the mess you see in the mirror
You’ve owned the lies that you’re just not enough
You’re been so blinded by all you’re comparing
It’s time to own your belovedness
You are completely loved and fully known
Beloved, believe He died to make your heart His home

Matthew 10: 29-31
(Psalm 45)
God knows everything about us. When we feel small, insignificant, unloved...God cares for us. He loves us beyond all telling. The scriptures remind us we are worth more than a sparrow and the single hair on our head does not go unnoticed by our Loving God. This is the reality of the God who loves us.
"O God You Search Me and You Know Me"
St. John Vianney - Cure of Ars - Patron of Priests
"The Christians treasure is not on earth but in heaven. Our thoughts then ought to be directed towards where our treasure is. This is the glorious duty of man. To pray and to love. If you pray and love that is where your happiness lies." -St. John Vianney
Prayer by St. John Vianney
“I love You O my God, and my only desire is to love You until the last breath of my life. I love you O my infinitely lovable God and I would rather die loving You than to live without loving You. I love you Lord and the only grace I ask is to love You eternally. My God if my tongue cannot say in every moment that I love You, I want my heart to repeat it to You as often as I draw breath. Amen”
We all like to sing (even if it is only in the shower). There is something about a good song in our spirit that can bring such joy and peace. We hear in the scripture today that God, GOD, sings to us. Sr. Carol shares her song she sings back in praise.
