September 24, 2026 - Scripture Meditation - Can you drink the cup that I drink, or be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized? - Mark 10:38
Reflection: Jesus' challenge to His disciples and to us is one that bears much reflection.
In order to live in the Kingdom with Jesus, we accept, as He did, His Father's Will. In so doing, we need to rejoice in daily trials, both spiritual and material.
Prayer: All-powerful Father, help us shoulder the burdens You allow us in this life. Keep us aware of Your presence to us that we might walk in the assurance of doing Your Will.

September 24, 2026 - Scripture Meditation - Through Jesus Christ may God work in you all that is pleasing to Him. - Hebrews 13:21
Reflection: We must bear witness to the Lord's redemption - but we must do so through our conduct rather than our fine words.
To do God's will, to walk according to His word, to live in His grace, and to die in His peace - this is the best way to show that even today the Lord is alive, and powerful.
Prayer: Lord of life, let Your grace be always efficacious in me, and make me Your instrument in bringing it to others.

September 23, 2026 - Scripture Meditation - For so the Lord has commanded..., "I have set you as a light to the Gentiles, that you may be a means of salvation to all the world." - Acts 13:47
Reflection: We find ourselves on earth as in a tempestuous sea, a desert, and a vale of tears.
But Mary is the Star of the Sea, the Solace of our desert, and the Light that guides us to heaven. - St. John Bosco
Prayer: O Mary, you are our unfailing Guide to heaven. Make me desire holiness, and lead me along the right paths, so that at journey's end I may deserve to be with you and Jesus.

September 23, 2026 Meditation - The Cross will not crush you; if its weight makes you stagger, its power will also sustain you. - St. Pius of Pietrelcina
Reflection: Carrying the Cross - St. Pius of Pietrelcina bore the marks of the Stigmata for most of his priestly life. Like St. Francis, Padre Pio became a living sign of the Passion of Our Lord.
We, too, are called to become sacraments (visible signs of an invisible grace) of the Passion of the Lord by the way that we respond to the crosses of our own lives.
Prayer: Behold the wood of the Cross, on which hung the Savior of the world.

September 22, 2026 - Scripture Meditation - Love never comes to an end. - 1 Corinthians 13:8
Reflection: God is Love. God is Eternal. Therefore, His love is also everlasting.
The sun of His love is always in heaven even when you, because of dark clouds, cannot see it.
Prayer: My Father, I give You thanks for the inexhaustible fount of Your love. Never stop loving me, even though Your love is shown in the symbol of the Cross.

September 22, 2026 - Scripture Meditation - Remember your leaders who spoke the word of God to you.... and imitate their faith. (Hebrews 13:7)
Reflection: You most likely have people in your life who encouraged you in your walk of faith. So how can you honor them?
First, the Letter to the Hebrews tells us, remember who they are. Maybe your parents encouraged you in their day-to-day life with you. Maybe a neighbor enlarged your faith, or a friend helped you trust the Lord more deeply. If possible, find a way to thank these people. And of course, pray for them.
Next, Hebrews tells us, imitate their faith. Perhaps someone's prayer life has inspired you; try to follow his or her example. If you were touched by someone's humble way of caring for people, try to reach out in that way to someone else.
You'll likely find that imitating others' faith will make you an inspiration to someone. That's the way faith works: we all influence each other. And so the kingdom of God continues to grow.
Prayer: "Lord, thank You for the people who have helped me grow closer to You. Help me imitate their faith and be a witness to others."

September 21, 2026 - Scripture Meditation - God sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying out, "Abba, Father!" So you are no longer a servant but a son, and if a son then also an heir, through God. - Galatians 4:6-7
Reflection: Mary has conceived the Divine Word.
She has thus become the heaven that enclosed the Divinity in her womb for the purpose of exalting mortals to the great dignity of kinship with God. - St. Ephrem
Prayer: O Mary, you were the Associate of Jesus in His work of making us children of God. Help me to prize this Divine adoption above all things and ever seek to live as a true child of God.
