Scripture, Reflection and Prayer for Thursday, July 23, 2009

Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened to you.
- Mt 7:7

Reflection:
In prayer we seek, find, and converse with God just as we would with an intimate friend. We can speak of our sorrows and joys, our weaknesses and problems, and our desires to be better and to help others to be better too.
- Pope John Paul II


Prayer:
Dear Lord, guard me from the danger of saying to You what I think You want to hear. Teach me to pray in such a way that I truly express that which is in my heart and mind.
