Daily Prayer 8/10

Feast of St. Lawrence, Deacon and Martyr

Morning Offering:

O Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I offer you my prayers, works,
joys, and sufferings of this day for all the intentions of your Sacred Heart, in
union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world, for the
salvation of souls, the reparation of sins, and the reunion of all Christians. In
particular, we offer up the intentions of the Holy Father this month that
political leaders be at the service of their own people, working for integral human development and for the common good, especially caring for the poor and those who have lost their jobs. Amen


Daily Prayer:

Lord Jesus, teach me to understand what sacrifice means in my life. Just as a grain of wheat must fall to the ground and die, it can produce so much more goodness to many. Help me let go of worldly attachments and follow You Jesus with wholehearted devotion. May I serve You faithfully where I am, knowing that where You are, I too shall be. Let me recognize Your presence, especially with my brothers and sisters in need. Amen
