JOURNEY TO THE MANGER | DAY 20 PSALM OF THE DAY F JOURNEY TO THE MANGER | DAY 20
PSALM OF THE DAY
For you are my hope, O LORD;
my trust, O God, from my youth.
On you I depend from birth;
from my mother’s womb you are my strength.
My mouth shall be filled with your praise, 
and I will sing your glory!
PAUSE + REFLECT
"It is Christ who pursues us lovingly: 'Behold, I stand at the door and knock.' How is your life of prayer going? At times don't you feel during the day the impulse to speak more at length with him? Don't you then whisper to him that you will tell him all about it later, in a heart-to-heart conversation?"
St. Josemaria Escriva
Christ is Passing By, no. 8
🎁 THE MANGER OF OUR HEARTS & HOMES
Every Nativity scene, no matter how simple, helps us look again, slowly and prayerfully, at the manger where God chose to be born. 
Comment “Nativity” for a reflection and blessing of a manger!
