Friday 26 August

1 Corinthians 1: 17-25;

Psalm 33: 1-5, 10-11; Matthew 25: 1-13
Stay awake

I like to think that each grace we receive prepares us to receive well the graces that are to come. We are invited to expect the Lord and his graces. Our difficulty is forgetfulness – we tend to forget the basic truths of faith so easily and to put them to the periphery of our awareness. A deeper livelier faith awakens us to God’s loving action. Lord, I believe, help me believe.
