Abba Father thank you for this day when we commemorate the entry of Jesus on a donkey. Jesus needs something from us each day, let us be open to his voice and ask Lord what is it you need from me today. Fill me with a readiness and openness to listen to His voice and silently do whatever he asks of me in my present situation as caregiver to my husband who is a dialysis patient and currently has a painful frozen shoulder. Bless my home, my family, my children and their spouses, may the love of Jesus fill their hearts, minds and spirits and help them to strive becoming more Christlike and Marylike each day, so that we in our own little way will be agents of peace and harmony wherver we are placed. Holy Spirit help me do my internet retreat with full focus so I catch all the graces and blessings you have in store for me. Mother Mary bless all the retretants and Fr. Errol who is guiding us..may this retreat be a source of tremendous spiritual grace and strength to us. Amen
