DAY 1

READ

The word of the LORD came to me: “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I dedicated you, a prophet to the nations I appointed you.”Jeremiah 1:4-5

REFLECT

God knows me ... He created me ... He wants me to exist ... He has a purpose in life for me ... Reflect on this truth; savor it; read the passage again, slowly, out loud, let it nourish your soul.

(Make the Sign of the Cross)

Lead kindly Light, amid the encircling gloom, Lead thou me on;
The night is dark, and I am far from home, Lead thou me on,
Keep thou feet; I do not ask to see
The distant scene; one step enough for me.

Blessed Cardinal John Henry Newman
