savedbygrace Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 (edited) Hi everyone, I read a lovely thing today during my devotions, I would like to share with you."Not where I breathe, but where I love, I live". St Robert Southwell, it was new to me but maybe familiar to some, my prayer is that some day I will truly be able to say this of myself. www.facebook/ Grimsby Catholic Edited March 13, 2014 by savedbygrace 1
Garden Girl Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 What a wonderful thought... thank you for sharing... I like thinking of you in your devotions, savedbygrace... because the first thing I do each morning (after feeding Bobbie-cat of course) is sit in my big chair in the quiet house and say my morning prayers... It is a time when I open my heart as I say my prayers, and just feel the connection to Heavenly Father and to the Savior... GG

Nice thing is, in these high tech days, even if I can't pray at home, I can take my prayers with me on my phone. Laudate is a great Catholic app. I am sure there must be some great LDS ones too. 1

MelodyMP3 Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Psalm 139...O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known [me]. 2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. 3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted [with] all my ways. 4 For [there is] not a word in my tongue, [but], lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether. 5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me. 6 [such] knowledge [is] too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot [attain] unto it. 7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? 8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou [art] there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou [art there]. 9 [if] I take the wings of the morning, [and] dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; 10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. 11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me. 12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light [are] both alike [to thee]. 13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb. 14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully [and] wonderfully made: marvellous [are] thy works; and [that] my soul knoweth right well. 15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, [and] curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. 16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all [my members] were written, [which] in continuance were fashioned, when [as yet there was] none of them. 17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them! 18 [if] I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee. 19 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men. 20 For they speak against thee wickedly, [and] thine enemies take [thy name] in vain. 21 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? 22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies. 23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: 24 And see if [there be any] wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
