Feast of St. Jarlath

Reflection

“Be still and know that I am God!” –Psalm 46:11

Prayer

God above us,

As we remember St. Jarlath today, we are inspired by a life so devoted to prayer, study, and good works for others. In our own ways today, give us a measure of peace, so that we too can be still, get to know you better, and then act in ways that extend your presence with and for others. We all are longing these days for a quiet moment to recoup and refresh. May the saints’ own habits inspire us to embrace a prayerful silence whenever we can. Amen.

Call to Action

Set a timer. Sit still, in the silence, for five minutes today. Repeat henceforth, opening my heart
to transformation.
