For at least the next few moments, surrender all the cares and concerns of this day to the Lord.*** ***Say slowly from your heart “Jesus, I Trust In You…You Take Over”*** ***Become aware that He is with you, looking upon you with love, wanting to be heard deep within in your heart…*** From the Holy Gospel According to St. Luke 12:49-53 > Jesus said to his disciples: ‘I have come to bring fire to the earth, and how I wish it were blazing already! There is a baptism I must still receive, and how great is my distress till it is over! > ‘Do you suppose that I am here to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division. For from now on a household of five will be divided: three against two and two against three; the father divided against the son, son against father, mother against daughter, daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.’ ***What word made this passage come alive for you?*** ***What did you sense the Lord saying to you?*** ***Once more give the Lord an opportunity to speak to you:*** > Jesus said to his disciples: ‘I have come to bring fire to the earth, and how I wish it were blazing already! There is a baptism I must still receive, and how great is my distress till it is over! > ‘Do you suppose that I am here to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division. For from now on a household of five will be divided: three against two and two against three; the father divided against the son, son against father, mother against daughter, daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.’ ***What did your heart feel as you listened?*** ***What did you sense the Lord saying to you?*** ***Once more, through Him, with Him and in Him listen to the Word:*** > Jesus said to his disciples: ‘I have come to bring fire to the earth, and how I wish it were blazing already! There is a baptism I must still receive, and how great is my distress till it is over! > ‘Do you suppose that I am here to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division. For from now on a household of five will be divided: three against two and two against three; the father divided against the son, son against father, mother against daughter, daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.’ ***What touched your heart in this time of prayer?*** ***What did your heart feel as you prayed?*** ***What do you hope to carry with you from this time with the Lord?*** * * * *Our Father, who art in heaven,* *hallowed be thy name.* *Thy kingdom come.* *Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.* *Give us this day our daily bread,* *and forgive us our trespasses,* *as we forgive those who trespass against us,* *and lead us not into temptation,* *but deliver us from evil.* *Amen* ## Excerpt from THE JERUSALEM BIBLE, copyright (c) 1966 by Darton, Longman & Todd, Ltd. and Doubleday, a division of Penguin Random House, Inc.
