Wonder, Gratitude, and Joy

My birthday was lovely and today I probably will not write much but want to tell you I have made a plan for my blogs for June and will definitely go back to our Spirituality as shown in the section on prayer in our Constitutions as I see that it lends itself to line by line reflection in many paragraphs and think it will be fruitful for all of us.
The other plan I have in June for myself is to take a phrase from the Litany of the Sacred Heart (the one we used to say in our schools for the First Friday novena years ago) and stay with it each day. I found this very fruitful when I did it before and think the Holy Spirit is inspiring me to return to this - today is the first invocation: Sacred Heart of Jesus, to your adoration I unite myself. I am not sure what this means and have been struggling as a theologian to understand the implications of uniting myself to the adoration of Jesus, but that is fine as long as it keeps me centered on my phrase for the day. This really is a great way to pray all day so do try it with me. Tomorrow is "to your burning love, I unite myself" and much easier to stay with and desire intensely.

"This really is a great way to pray all day so do try it with me. Tomorrow is "to your burning love, I unite myself" and much easier to stay with!" This is real. I love the you are going to try. Love your blog. Trying to be with the next updates. Now, for your help I think this Jewish video goo.gl/BQH4G will really make you feel grateful!
