How To Pray With Shalom
Home Page of Shalom
Index of This Month
 

The Kingdom of God is not a place of power and magnificence. It is a quiet movement working in the hearts of people all over the world, people who promote justice, reconciliation, peace and true brotherhood in their ordinary everyday lives. It is a movement which does God's work. It is like a mustard seed which begins as something tiny but almost imperceptibly grows and provides protection for those who need it. It is like yeast, which, though so small in quantity, penetrates the large batch of dough and causes it to grow and grow. We are all called to be Kingdom people and we can only do that by being fully integrated into our society and making a difference in it.



O Lord, may Your Kingdom come!

DAILY OFFERING
Eternal Father, I offer You everything I do this day; my thoughts, words, joys and sufferings. Grant that, vivified by the Holy Spirit and united to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, my life this day may be of service to You and to others. I also pray that all those preparing for marriage discover in Sacrament the source of Christ's grace for living a fithful and fruitful love. Amen.

PRAYING WITH THE CHURCH
INTENTION
That, firm in their faith, Christians may be eager to dialogue with those who belong to another religious tradition.
