June 10th, Tenth Sunday in Ordinary time
Jesus, as we see the beauty of the world around us, open our eyes to see the beauty of
the Eucharist.
Let us see in the consecrated Host, Your true self.
Let us truly realize that this gift of Your continued love, is really, and truly,
present in the consecrated bread and wine.
Let us come to adoration, and if our church doesn't have adoration, let us ask that we
be able to come, and sit before the tabernacle, and worship and glorify You.
Let us sit in prayerful silence at Your true presence.
Let us offer our lives as vessels to bring peace in our homes, and in the world around us.
Let us be totally Yours in all of our thoughts, words, and actions.
Let us be seen as disciples of Christ, at home and in the work place.
Amen and Amen.
Thank You Lord, for loving us totally.

Sunday FAMILY MATTERS
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=6/10/2018
"...gazing around Him at those seated in the circle..." -Mark 3:34
Jesus came to earth as a Man, and His experience of family was the love flowing through the Holy
Family (Lk 2:39-40) and, later, through His relatives (Mk 3:31-32). Jesus has an unimaginably rich
family history.
Today's Gospel presents an abrupt diversion from Jesus' family experience. Jesus gazes at the crowd
seated in the circle around Him (Mk 3:34). These people are "hanging on His words" (Lk 19:48). They
seek wisdom, healing, or words of direction from One greater than they (Lk 11:31-32). Suddenly the
Master is interrupted by a summons from His family. The people in the crowd immediately realize that
their time with Jesus is up. They naturally assume Jesus must attend to family matters and mentally
prepare to return home, not knowing if they will ever see Him again. Imagine the look on their faces
as Jesus gazes lovingly at them and tells them they are His family, because they are doing the will
of God (Mk 3:34-35). Imagine the joy of Jesus in sharing with them the never-ending love that flows
in His family.
At Baptism, you were begotten from above (Jn 3:3), given a new nature, and adopted into the family
of God. You are no longer strangers; you are included in the best family ever. Live your Baptism. Do
God's will. Live in His family love (Jn 15:10).
Prayer: Holy Father, Holy Jesus, and Holy Spirit, may I bear much fruit for You (Jn 15:8) and lead
many thousands into our family.
Promise: "Whoever does the will of God is brother and sister and mother to Me." -Mk 3:35
Praise: Praise You, Lord, for the blessing of holy families, which are the backbone of any society.
Glory to You, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit!

Pope Francis, Shepherd of Truth

Notable quotations from Pope Francis and official teachings of the Roman Catholic Church
CALLED TO HOLINESS
CHOSEN BY THE LORD
...The Lord has chosen each one of us "to be holy and blameless before Him in love" (Eph 1:4). (2)
CONSTANT ADVANCE
The Letter to the Hebrews ... invites us to realize that "a great cloud of witnesses" (12:1) impels
us to advance constantly towards the goal. These witnesses may include our own mothers, grandmothers
or other loved ones (cf. 2 Tim 1:5). Their lives may not always have been perfect, yet even amid
their faults and failings they kept moving forward and proved pleasing to the Lord. (3)
LIVES OF LOVE
We are all called to be holy by living our lives with love and by bearing witness in everything we
do, wherever we find ourselves. (14)
