Prayer in Irish/Eenglish
Is fiú cuimhne a choinneáil ar an méid seo a leanas.
Más ionann an ghuí agus ardú an mheoin agus an chroí chun Dé, is gá duitse, atá ag tabhairt faoin ardú seo, bheith i gceannas ar do mheon agus ar do chroí. Tá iomaitheoirí ar do thóir, ag baint na sál díot. Tá sé deacair go leor suíomh gréasáin Tearmann nó SacredSpace a bhaint amach gan éalú trí rois de phictiúir agus d’fhógraí, a chuireann romhat laetha saoire, míochainí agus leigheasanna, uaireadóirí saora, nithe gan teorainn, le santú. Tá fealsúnacht an mhargaidh mar dhris sa chonair romhat: is rud folláin an tsaint – ceannaigh a bhfuil á thairiscint againn duit. Tá mórán mangairí ar thóir mo mheoin, agus mo chroí, agus mo chárta creidmheasa. Conas is féidir liom fanacht i gceannas? Trí na bealaí isteach im chroí agus im intinn, mo shúile agus mo chluasa, a chosaint. Tóg duit féin scagaire spam pearsanta chun do shúile agus do chluasa a chosaint, scrioseochair uathoibritheach lena húsáid i dtaobh cibé rud a chuireann ar strae mé ó bhealach an Tiarna. B’fhéidir gurbh fhusa é do Naomh Agaistín, ach is cuidiú fós a chuid focal: Is duit féin a chruthaigh tú sinn, a Thiarna, agus níl faoiseamh in ann dár gcroí go bhfaighidh sé suaimhneas ionat.

25th July, Feast of St James, Apostle
The Presence of God
To be present is to arrive as one is and open up to the other.
At this instant, as I arrive here, God is present waiting for me.
God always arrives before me, desiring to connect with me
even more than my most intimate friend.
I take a moment and greet my loving God.
Freedom
Many countries are at this moment suffering
the agonies of war.
I bow my head in thanksgiving for my freedom.
I pray for all prisoners and captives.
Consciousness
Where do I sense hope, encouragement, and growth areas in my life?
By looking back over the last few months,
I may be able to see which activities and occasions have produced rich fruit.
If I do notice such areas,
I will determine to give those areas both time and space in the future.
The Word
In this expectant state of mind, please turn to the text for the day with confidence.
Believe that the Holy Spirit is present
and may reveal whatever the passage has to say to you.
Read reflectively, listening with a third ear to what may be going on in your heart.

Matthew 20:20-28
Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to him with her sons, and kneeling before him, she asked a favor of him. And he said to her, "What do you want?" She said to him, "Declare that these two sons of mine will sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your kingdom." But Jesus answered, "You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink?'' They said to him, "We are able." He said to them, "You will indeed drink my cup, but to sit at my right hand and at my left, this is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father." When the ten heard it, they were angry with the two brothers. But Jesus called them to him and said, "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones are tyrants over them. It will not be so among you; but whoever wishes to be great among you must be your servant, and whoever wishes to be first among you must be your slave; just as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many."
