Jesus continues His ministry of healing and preaching in this week’s Gospel. He spoke with authority the way no one had spoken before, not even the Rabbis. Many people often forget prayer is the first and last act of a follower of Christ. How essential is prayer in your life?

Find a quiet time to sit in meditation or simply contemplate the presence of God in and around you. 

We pray together: St. Jude, I pray that I may live like you as a disciple of the Lord.
