​SAINT CASIMIR

Picture
  • Praying with the Gospel: Lectio Divina.   
    Pray with this short passage from the Gospel using the 5 steps of Lectio Divina.
    Jesus said ‘Do not worry and ask yourselves, “Will we have anything to eat? Will we have anything to drink? Will we have any clothes to wear?” Only people who don’t know God are always worrying about such things. Your Father in heaven knows that you need all of these.  But more than anything else, put God’s work first and do what he wants. Then the other things will be yours as well.
    Do not worry about tomorrow. It will take care of itself. You have enough to worry about today"
