Today I Will…

Today, the first day of the week,
the first day of the month,
at first light, my first thoughts,
Generous God, are of your
blessing and your sustaining presence.
Today I will…
be among those who meditate and
reflect upon your grace shown in
the life of Jesus…
share the blessings I receive
and offer myself in witness to
the abundance of life in Christ…
try to live the Gospel into reality…
foster gratitude, justice and mercy
in all my activities of this day.
I will do these things, Lord,
if you will grant me the courage
and the will to try. May all
creation celebrate on this day
which the Lord has made. Amen.
