Thought for today

Todayrsquos readings invite us to ponder Godrsquos relationship with us He is here before and beside us surrounding us with the gifts and grace to do his work In this Eucharist we give thanks for Godrsquos love made known to us in Jesus and pray to be strengthened in our lives by the outpouring of Godrsquos Spirit
