We have quite fortifying graces and gifts,
among them:
Prudence
Justice
Fortitude
Temperance
Which do you need in your personal life?
Which do you need in your family life
or work life?
Jesus, teach me to be
thoughtful and balanced
in my daily life practices.
Teach me to persevere
in prayer and good works
even in times of difficulties.
Teach me to be courageous
in acting for justice for others
or calling for it on behalf of myself.
Contour my actions
with your graces and gifts.
Amen
*Read a chapter of a Gospel
and notice Jesus
modeling one or another
of these foundational virtues
in some manner
or read a chapter of an Epistle
calling for one or another.
