Reflection |

Today -  

Chapter 49 - God announces salvation and restoring of Zion

Chapter 50 - The Lord has given me the tongue of a teacher.

Chapter 51 - Pursue righteousness. Listen to the prophet.
You have forgotten the Lord.

Chapter 52 - Takeoff your funeral garments for God has saved you.

Chapter 53 - Description of the suffering servant. Jesus?

Chapter 54 - All is forgiven between God and people.

Chapter 55 - Anyone who is thirsty come to the water. Seek the
Lord where God will be found, call upon God when while God is
near.

A Prayer Attributed to St. Francis

Lord, make us instruments of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let us sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is discord, union;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.

Grant that we may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love. 

For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.
