Daily Offering 

 

        "Lord, into your hands I commend my spirit. I offer you my day and my
        life, my soul and my body, my mind and my heart, as your dear Son
        offered you his life.. "May I begin to live and die for love of your
        love, as you rejoiced to live and to die for love of our love.
        May I live and die for You."
        .

        from 'Offertory" - meditations of my heart

Loving Father,
    I offer you everything I do this day -
   my thoughts, works, joys and sufferings.
      I desire to join my heart this day
         to the heart of your Son,
  who gave himself up totally to your service
        and to the service of others.
            Give me your Spirit
         so that I can live like him,
    joined to his offering in the Eucharist.
Father, I abandon myself into Your hands;
do with me what You will.
Whatever You do I thank You.
I am ready for all, I accept all.
Let only Your will be done in me,
as in all Your creatures,
I ask no more than this, my Lord.
Into Your hands I commend my soul;
I offer it to You, O Lord,
with all the love of my heart,
for I love You, my God, and so need to give myself--
to surrender myself into Your hands,
without reserve and with total confidence,
for You are my Father.
-Brother Charles de Foucauld
             

All this day, O Lord, 
Let me touch as many lives as possible for thee;
and every life I touch, do thou by thy holy spirit, quicken, 
whether through the word I speak, 
the prayer I breathe, or the life I live. 
-Amen
