Inspiration to Start the Work Week
St. Basil of the Desert Orthodox Hermitage
When life feels uncertain and the road ahead is hidden, our first step is not fear, it is prayer.
There are moments when we do not know which direction to take, what decision to make, or what tomorrow will bring. In those moments, God does not ask us to see the entire journey. He simply asks us to trust Him with the next faithful step.
May this prayer remind us to quiet our hearts, lay aside confusion, and place our lives into the loving hands of Christ. May He bless our work, protect our families, replace anxiety with peace, and lead us according to His perfect will.
“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” — Psalm 119:105
Lord, guide us in Your wisdom, strengthen us in our faith, and grant us the grace to walk the path You have prepared for us.
Amen.
Dear Parishioners and Friends,
I saw the above message on a Facebook post and thought I would share it. It reminds me of the trust that the Centurion had in Sunday's gospel. I hope it speaks to you.
Have a beautiful celebration of Saints Peter & Paul today and the 12 Holy Apostles tomorrow. May your week be blessed as we begin by commemorating these Apostles that were and continue to be luminaries of the faith.
Love in Christ,
Fr. Paul
St. Tikhon of Zadonsk
When God seems hidden from you, do not lose your trust. Stand firm in prayer, for He is testing your patience and faith. He rewards those who wait upon Him.
