POOR SERVANTS OF THE MOTHER OF GOD

Thought for the Day

Jesus is at a marriage feast. He is enjoying himself. His mother, sitting beside him, is thoughtful, observing, making herself useful among the people, doing good. Shouldn’t that be a picture of our own lives?

With Mechtild of Magdeburg we pray:

Pour out compassion and mercy

from the depths of your heart

and give to the poor and the broken

the service of your love.

Mechtild of Magdeburg:  from Woman’s Song of God
