My 30 Days of Thanks - Days Nine, Ten, and Eleven

Day 9:  I am thankful for the gift of the Divine Office (Liturgy of the Hours).

Mark and I try to do the entire Office every day. We almost always do the Invitatory and Morning Prayer. And usually do the evening and night. But now that we are going to daily mass at 12:20p, we should be able to do the whole day/night. There is the Invitatory, Office of Readings, Morning, Daytime, Evening, and Night Prayers. If you have never used this gift, it will bring you closer to our Savior!

There is this awesome website, http://divineoffice.org/ , that is always 'up' on my laptop, all day, every day! It is very user friendly.

Thank you, Jesus, for the gift of the Divine Office.


Day 10:  I am thankful for the gift of Grace.

It is only by my gift of grace from God Himself that I am still living on this earth! Oh, the things I have done and the messes I have gotten myself into (that darn free will of mine), I am convinced that God has way more for me to do in this life! Lord God, I am Yours to do with what You will. Whatever pleases You most. Take me, mold me, teach me Your will.

Thank you, Jesus, for the gift of Gace.


Day 11:  I am thankful for our Military Veterans.

On this day we 'officially' honor our Military Veterans, both past and present, but I am thankful for them everyday. Without them sacrificing themselves and their families to serve this great country of ours, we would never know the freedoms we have now.

Thank you, Jesus, for our Military Veterans.

Peace be with you,
Denise
