LECTIO - Read Scripture Text:   Psalm 145:10, 11, 12-13ab

All your works shall praise You, O LORD,

And your saints shall bless You.

They speak of the glory of your kingdom,

And talk of your power.

Make know to the sons of men his mighty acts

And the glorious majesty of his kingdom.

Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,

And they dominion endures throughout all generations.

ORATIO – Lifting our minds and hearts to the LORD in prayer:

Loving and gracious LORD, I come to You this day, Father, Son, and Spirit, my mind aware of all You are and heart full of love. With thanksgiving, I lift my voice in praise for You as does all of your creation. And I ask that tenderize my heart and soul so that I might surrender more completely to You and your divine and loving design. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
