John the Baptist said he was not the Messiah but only a voice to prepare the way for the Messiah.

Accepting who we are and what we can do is the the hallmark of authentic life.

Do what you can and leave the rest for God.

Happy 3rd Sunday of Advent

I ask Our Lord to grant us the grace of considering matters as they are in God and not as they appear apart from Him; otherwise we might deceive ourselves and act other than He wishes (VII:403).

REFLECTION: Loving God above all things means a willingness to let go of things or relationships if they prove to be obstacles to my relationship with God.

QUESTION: What is that obstacle in my life?

PRAYER: Loving saviour, please help me to love you above all things, and to love all things in you. Let my money, talents, experiences, and relationships draw me always closer to you. Amen.

John the Baptist is a model for us as we prepare for Christmas.
He was dressed in camel's hair and fed on locust and wild honey.

365 DAYS WITH ST VINCENT DE PAUL: DECEMBER 05

You did not give yourself to God to follow your own inclination but to submit to God’s guidance (VI:146).

Reflection: If you wish to be exalted by God, you must serve with the deepest humility.

Question: How does God see me?

Prayer: Most humble Lord, you are exalted above all because you were humble beyond all. Please give me your eyes to see myself as you see me, so that in your humble gaze, I will turn to you as the source of all my love. Amen.

Your patience will be crowned and your pains changed into eternal delights (VI:117).

Reflection: Small repeated acts of honesty and kindness can gradually make a corrupt person a virtuous one. Therefore, we must persistently work on doing the right thing in small matters.

Question: How much effort do I make to be a good person?

Prayer: Lord God, increase my faith, hope, and love. I believe in you because you are Truth itself. I hope in you because I trust you and have confidence in the promises you have made. Amen.
