Thought for the Day – 15 March – Meditations with Antonio Cardinal Bacci (1881-1971)
The Consolation of Prayer
“There are moments when we are overcome by a very deep sadness.
It maybe an illness, the result of which could be death or inability to work.
Perhaps it is an insult or calumny which has crushingly humiliated us.
Or perhaps it is some sin into which we have fallen so seriously that we are close to despair.
Somehow, our cross seems too heavy to bear.
It is now that we are in special need of prayer.
We can find peace and resignation.
God is infinitely good and loves us with a fatherly love.
Let us run confidently to Him.
If we pray with humility and perseverance, we shall always be comforted.”
Antonio Cardinal Bacci
