St. Patrick’s Day
Reflection
“I arise today / Through God’s strength to pilot me: / God’s might to uphold me, / God’s wisdom to guide me, / God’s eye to look before me, / God’s ear to hear me, / God’s word to speak for me, / God’s hand to guard me, / God’s way to lie before me. . . .” –from Lúireach Phádraig
(St. Patrick’s Breastplate)
