March 27, 2012 -- Fifth Tuesday in Lent

Saints and Feasts:
Matrona of Thessaloniki
Paul, Bishop of Corinth

Readings:
Isaiah 40:18-31
Genesis 15:1-15
Proverbs 15:7-19

To ponder and meditate on:
"Prayer breathes hope, and a prayer without hope is a sinful prayer." - St. John of Kronstadt

Challenge:
Spend some time today doing something you’re not confident you will succeed at. Pray for strength with the following prayer: Lord Jesus Christ, my God, You have said “Apart from me you can do nothing.” In faith I embrace your words, Lord, and I entreat your goodness. Help me to carry out the work I am about to begin, and bring it to completion. To you I give glory, Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
