Prayer - July 3

Jesus, I so admire your patience with the disciples, and yet you also balanced it with truth. You understood where Thomas was coming from, but at the same time gave him a challenge. That’s what I love about you! You are merciful, compassionate, and fully understand our human weakness.

You know our fears, the things which hold us back from trusting you and from becoming fully ourselves. But you won’t let us use those things as an excuse. There is always a challenge to grow, and with the challenge comes the grace to meet it. Thank you for caring so much about me. Rev. Herbert Yost, CSC
