The Lord takes delight in his people (Ps 149:5).
1 John 5:20
We know that the Son of God has come and has given us the power to know the true God.
We all have a desire for God written on our hearts. We were created by God, for God and we can only find true peace and happiness in God. God is continually at work in our lives drawing us ever deeper to himself. As Pope Benedict has said: ‘All people feel the interior impulse to love authentically: love and truth never abandon them completely, because these are the vocation planted by God in the heart and mind of every human person’ (Caritas in Veritate 1).
Lord God, we thank you for the desire of our hearts to know you, for you yourself encourage us to delight in you praise, for you have made us for yourself and our hearts are restless until they rest in you (St Augustine). Help us to cherish this desire and nurture it today. Amen.
Our Father..., Ten Hail Marys …, Glory be…
