Week 2: Wednesday The Immaculate Conception "Come to Me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am meek and humble of heart; and you will find rest for yourselves. For My yoke is easy and My burden light." (Matthew 11:28-30) Reflection Are there burdens I can let go of? Sometimes we make other peoples problems our own. What burdens that are not my own can I give to God? Remember the old phrase, "Let go and let God." Advent Action Send a card to a friend or loved one who lost a family member during this year. Let them know you are praying for them and thinking of them this Christmas.
Prayer Lord, I give over all my cares to Your most Sacred Heart that I may be at rest in You. |
