Isaiah 26:1-6


Dear Love, Beloved of my soul,

All that is Yours You will protect and this is why we have joy in our heart and a song on our lips. You have poured out Your Blood for us which protects us from the wiles of the Enemy. You have given us Your Holy Spirit who is more powerful than evil. All those who believe in You, hope in You, trust in You, walk with You, have nothing to fear for You will never leave those who are marked by the Sign of the Cross. Whose soul bears the royal seal of God that declares that we belong to God and to Him alone.

All those who trust in You will know peace, the peace that passes understanding. To put our trust in You is to put our trust in God who never fails. You despise the proud and haughty of heart but to those who realize that without You they are nothing, will have the God of love with them constantly. You are our Rock, our Refuge and our Stronghold and with You victory is ours.

Psalm 118:1, 8-9, 19-21, 25-27

Dear Love, Beloved of my soul,

With You at my right hand I fear nothing. I place all my hope, and faith in You for with You I am invincible.

We thank You Father, for sending Your Son into the world. He is the Sun of Justice and with Him and in Him we know that we are saved. Thank You for the answer that is Your Son. Loving Savior, thank You for coming to take us by the hand and for being the Gate through which all who believe may enter into that place that God has created for His faithful. A dwelling place with God Himself.

Through the Sacraments, we receive grace upon grace, rich treasures that will not fade, cannot be stolen, will not rust or spoil. You are our Treasure O King of Kings and Lord of Lords. May we praise You all our days as we walk in the Light and Radiance of the Son of God Most High.

Matthew 7:21, 24-27


Jesus said to his disciples:
"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,'
will enter the Kingdom of heaven,
but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven.

"Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them
will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. 
The rain fell, the floods came,
and the winds blew and buffeted the house. 
But it did not collapse; it had been set solidly on rock. 
And everyone who listens to these words of mine
but does not act on them
will be like a fool who built his house on sand. 
The rain fell, the floods came,
and the winds blew and buffeted the house. 

And it collapsed and was completely ruined."
