Friends like you remind me that it's worth the struggle! I often remember Pope Francis' commentary on the Lord's Prayer, where he said that the easiest temptation to fall into is the temptation to despair. Since I first heard that I have prayed a little modified version as part of my morning prayer time: "...let us not fall into temptation, but deliver us from discouragement, despair and darkness, and lead us on Your Path of Light..." The last little bit came from a Beloved Friend. I don't think he minded my borrowing it! Love to you and yours as well, Kind Padre!
Again, you speak to my heart dear Sister. It’s a daily struggle to stay positive and hopeful. Much love to you and yours 💖🙏✨🌹
