Come let us bow down in worship; let us kneel before the Lord who made
us.
For he is our God, and we are the people he shepherds, the
flock he guides.
Psalm
95:6-7

“After the sisters have finished their day – carrying out their
service of love in the company of Jesus, and through Jesus - we have an hour of
prayer and of Eucharistic adoration.
Throughout the day we have been in contact with Jesus through His image
of sorrow in the poor and the lepers.
When the day ends, we come in contact with Him again in the tabernacle by
means of prayer. The tabernacle is the
guarantee that Jesus has set His tent among us.
Every moment of prayer, especially before our
Lord in the tabernacle, is a sure, positive gain. The time we spend in having our daily
audience with God is the most precious part of the whole
day.”
Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta

What a beautiful daily practice to
consider as you continue on your Lenten
journey!
