April 5th, 2023: Grant me, O Lord...

"Grant me, O Lord my God, a mind to know you, a heart to seek you, wisdom to find you, conduct pleasing to you, faithful perseverance in waiting for you, and a hope of finally embracing you. Amen."

Sir Thomas Aquinas

Knowing God is a lifetime pursuit. It is about having our lives transformed by His love.

Seeking God is a daily exercise. We learn to see God in all aspects of our days.

Our desire to attain wisdom is based on our ability to be content. We find God in our contentment and tranquillity.

We aim to please God in how we live our lives. By doing so, we serve others.

Waiting for God sometimes takes us through great agony. In these moments, we see the glory of God.

We hope as we long to be one with God. Our oneness with God is the place where God intends for us to be.

"Whoever restrains his words has knowledge, and he who has a cool spirit is a man of understanding. Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent." - Proverbs 17: 27-28
