Hermitage Reflection for November


The temple of God is holy, and you are that temple.
1 Cor 3: 17

November
Hermitage Chapel

What underscores your faith and personal relationship with Christ?

If you were asked what quality you possess that has the potential, through grace, to daily reflect Christ's life and love, what would you answer?

Pray quietly, search within, ask the Spirit to reveal the gift bestowed when God created you in His image. He daily extends the grace needed to reflect the unique creation of His Love that you are. Share Christ's life with your family, friends, and all whom you chance to meet.

Then, give thanks to the Lord!

"Look for Christ Our Lord in everyone
and you will then have respect and reverence for all."
St. Teresa of Jesus

Prayer to Our Lady of Tenderness

 

Below is a prayer composed by Bishop John W. Flesey to Our Lady of Tenderness. United in heart and mind, let us pray that hearts across our globe long for and embrace the gift of Christ's peace.

Our Lady

Dear Lady of Tenderness,

We live in an angry and violent world. War and terrorism threaten us on all sides. We respectfully turn to you, O Mother of the Compassionate One. We beg your intercession for us, your suffering sons and daughters. Because of the intimate bond you share with your Son Jesus, our Risen Lord, we know you will hear and heed our prayer for help. Ask your Savior Son to pour forth His Peace into our minds and hearts so that we might become one truly holy family united and guided by His Holy Spirit. Amen.
~ Most Rev. John W. Flesey, STD, DD
