One Minute Reflection – 19 April – Thursday of the Third Week of Eastertide – Today’s Gospel John 6:44–51
“No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day. It is written in the prophets, ‘And they shall all be taught by God.’ Every one who has heard and learnt from the Father comes to me.”….John 6:44-45
REFLECTION – “What delights we will find in forgetting self and seeking God! The Saints renounced themselves in order to seek God and to look for Him alone. It is in this that we attain heaven.”…St John Vianney
PRAYER – Infinite Lord, You are greater than anything we can imagine. Help us to forget self and seek only You in Your divine Son, who You sent to teach us and save us. May we follow Your Son and live in You in all our thoughts, words and actions. St Pope Leo IX, you sought by your life to follow the Lord, please pray for us. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God forever amen.

Passionate Catholic.
Being a Catholic is a way of life - a love affair "Religion must be like the air we breathe..."- St John Bosco
Prayer is what the world needs combined with the example of our lives which testify to the Light of Christ.
This site, which is now using the Traditional Calendar, will mainly concentrate on Daily Prayers, Novenas and the Memorials and Feast Days of our friends in Heaven, the Saints who went before us and the great blessings the Church provides in our Catholic Monthly Devotions.
This Site is placed under the Patronage of my many favourite Saints and especially, St Paul.
"For the Saints are sent to us by God
as so many sermons.
We do not use them, it is they who move us
and lead us, to where we had not expected to go.”
Charles Cardinal Journet (1891-1975)
This site adheres to the Catholic Church and all her teachings.
