“Prayer is powerful! It fills the earth with mercy. The mercy and clemency obtained through the power of prayer will always produce its generous and saving effects in people.”

-St. Frances Cabrini

For Reflection:

What “generous and saving effects” of prayer have I seen in the lives of others that I know? What “generous and saving effects” of prayer have I seen in my own life? What “generous and saving effects” of my own personal prayer have I seen? How does all of this inspire me and encourage me to keep praying?

Remember, my daughter, the words of the Divine Master to His apostles, which he directs to us today: “Let not your hearts be troubled” (John 14:1).  Yes, little daughter, do not let your heart be in turmoil in the hour of trial, because Jesus has promised his assistance to whoever follows him.
