Scripture, Reflection and Prayer for Thursday, April 29, 2010

I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
- John 14:6

Reflection: Many want to go ahead of Christ not after Him--by laying out a way to their own specifications. They seek to serve God and obtain virtue without effort. But they deceive themselves, for Christ is "the way."
- St. Catherine of Siena

Prayer: Lord Jesus, guard me from the desire to take the easy way. Grant that I may faithfully and diligently follow the way You have traced out to the Father for us.
