Believe In The Good News

Jesus said, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near; repent and believe in the good news. Follow Me and I will make you fishers of people."
Mark 1: 15-20

I pray...
Thank you Jesus, for Your invitation to follow You and share in Your mission to proclaim the good news to all people.

Jesus, as You speak to me through the words of the gospels and Your Holy Spirit, may I respond to Your call today.

Teach me to recognize Your hand at work in my daily life.

Jesus, since the time I spent in St. Ignatius Retreat In Daily Life, I have felt called to Your presence every day, and called to write a book and a blog of daily devotionals; a devotional of Your scriptures and my prayers and thoughts from my time spent with You.

My desire is to share Your love and the the possibilities of a closer walk with You.
Lord, You have taught me how to follow You, how to have a deeper, more loving relationship with You. Now please teach me how to inspire others to want to know You better and develop a deeper, more loving relationship with You.

Jesus, may all that is You flow into me adn teach me the specific things to say and do to glorify You.

I seek Your presence in everything I think and say and do, and my great desire is to be Your light in a dark world, and to glorify and introduce You to everyone.

Jesus, how may I glorify You today?

Jesus said, "Listen for My call, be obedient to My command. Seek My Spirit and follow Me. Walk with Me each and every day. Be a blessing to those in need. Proclaim My word an sew the seed. Be My example in word and deed."

I pray...
Jesus, may all that is You flow into me. May Your passion and death by my strength and life. May You love and wisdom flow from You through me to others. May Your Holy Spirit be in me and in all my sisters and brothers.

Keep calling me Lord and I will follow You all the days of my life; and with Your saints I will praise You forever.
