HAPPY FEAST DAY, St. Ignatius of Loyola This wounded pilgrim teaches us that our past does not define us, our wounds do not disqualify us, and God’s work in us is never finished. God is always at work, but His grace does not force its way into our lives. It takes root and bears fruit in a receptive heart, a heart open enough to listen, discern, and respond. St. Ignatius of Loyola, pray for us.

Psalm 104: 1 Let all that I am praise the LORD.- 33 I will sing to the LORD as long as I live. I will praise my God to my last breath! As we age we become aware of the diseases and challenges that we face, No matter what we commit to these verses. God help me to do this no matter what I go through, no matter how much pain Im experiencing. Give me the grace to let all that I am praise the Lord
