Prayer

Heavenly Father,

As the Church keeps Saints Simon and Jude, Apostles, I come before You with gratitude and trust. Thank You for this day, for the grace to pray, and for the quiet ways You remain near.

Give me apostolic courage, fidelity to the Gospel, and a willingness to bear witness with love.

Shape my heart for holy worship, steady prayer, and daily obedience. Let faith, repentance, charity, and peace grow quietly in me today.

Keep me close to Scripture, the sacraments, and the communion of the Church. May everything in this day lead me nearer to You.

Amen.

Pray this into life

Let today's prayer become one concrete act of charity.
