Saturday Daily Prayer

See November Daily Prayer for the opening, closing, and canticle.

Psalm 131

O Lord, my heart is not proud
nor haughty my eyes.
I have not gone after things too great
nor marvels beyond me.

Truly I have set my soul
in silence and peace.
As a child has rest in its mother’s arms,
even so my soul.

O Israel, hope in the Lord
both now and for ever.

Reading: Wisdom 7:27a; 8:1

The Wisdom of God, who is one, can do all things,
and renews everything while herself perduring;
Indeed, she reaches from end to end mightily
and governs all things well.

Intercessions

Fill our hearts with love.
Lord hear our prayer!
Make our hearts ready to hear your voice.
Lord hear our prayer!
May the dead rejoice at the heavenly banquet.
Lord hear our prayer!

Prayer

Dear Jesus,
Fill our hearts with faith, hope, and charity. May we always be found ready to follow you in all you desire. We ask the Father for this in your name in union with the Holy Spirit. Amen.
