He's not busy...

 

Or are you too busy…

 

How many times have you thought, I don't have time to pray?

 

I'm not accusing you, because I'm also guilty!   And I know you are really busy.  But are we too busy for Jesus, Our Savior???

 

 

 

At times it can be hard, but every day we need to strive to keep our focus on Eternal Things.  Our Catholic faith should be influencing and permeating our entire life.   

 

Influencing all the big and little things.  Because God cares about all of it.

And He wants to be your bestie!😊

 

He's waiting for you to spend more time with Him.  Even among the pots and pans, the laundry, and while you're lying in bed.  

 

So now that we're a little more than halfway through Lent, let's make a renewed effort to work on our prayer lives.  It doesn't have to be long, formal prayer.  Even just small moments talking to Jesus “count.”  

 

 

Looking at the week ahead - is there a small habit or shift you can make to spend time with Jesus?  It doesn't have to be in a church (although bonus points if it is! 😊), and it doesn't even have to be through formal prayer (though it can be).  

 

If you're a mom and you want help building this habit, I have a resource here:  Pray More for Busy Catholic Moms.

 

Soul of Christ, sanctify me.
Body of Christ, save me.
Blood of Christ, embolden me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me.
Passion of Christ, strengthen me.
O good Jesus, hear me.
Within your wounds hide me.
Never permit me to be parted from you.
From the evil Enemy defend me.
At the hour of my death call me
and bid me come to you,
that with your Saints I may praise you
for age upon age. Amen.
