“Prefer nothing to the love of Christ.”  Rule of St. Benedict

Discernment

Prayer

Loving God, Your presence within me calls me to a new way of life.  My desire is to follow your will, but I’m not sure what that is.   Grant me patience to keep listening and to allow your will for me to unfold. Grant me wisdom to recognize your will in my life.  Grant me courage to respond in faith-filled love. Thank you for your guidance and for your gift of love.
Amen.

Do you seek God?

Do you believe that a life of prayer and personal transformation can make a difference?  Do you have the desire and skills needed to journey toward God with others?
