DIVINE WHISPER with FR. PIUSRALPH EFFIONG, SMMM

THURSDAY OF THE 27TH WEEK IN ORDINARY TIME YEAR (B)
Mystery of the day: Luminous
Celebration: Memorial of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary

"Blessed the man who has placed his trust in the Lord."  (Psalm 40:5ab)

God, right from the moment of creation has been in constant work to make man comfortable. He provides his needs, blesses and sustains the blessing. 

From time to time He admonished man to seek His face, if along the line the need provided is not enough. Not that He is not aware, but needs man to be responsible in his ways.
This called to mind our Lord's exhortation today as Evangelist Luke avers:

"And I tell you, Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For every one who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened." (Luke 11:9-10)

This is an invitation to be persistence in prayer. This points to the worth of it and how we value our communication with God. For the Psalmist has said it all:

"Blessed the man who has placed his trust in the Lord."  (Psalm 40:5ab)

It is praying that we build our trust in God, for "Only God" can do it for us. 
Peace! Be with you.
Fada PIUSRALPH prays for you.

Let us pray 🙏 
Eternal Word, we thank You for every blessings that come our way, the difficulties we experience to strengthen our faith in You and the challenges that engulfed us at times. All to make us be more closer to You. In Your loving mercy, Lord grant us the grace to see every situation in the eyes of faith that no matter how difficult it may be; Your powerful hand is always upon us. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
