Morning Prayer with the Oblate Family, July 15th

With Chaher Rhomaei

Friends, we join Chaher Rhomaei who is in De Mazenod House Retreat and Spirituality Centre in Tower Hill, London.  Today we join Chaher in reflecting on the first reading of today’s mass through art. Today is also the Feast day of Saint Bonaventure.

We listen to the reading from Isaiah 38 where the Lord hears Hezekiah’s prayer and heals him. 

As we reflect on today’s reading, we become aware not only of the powerful effect of prayer but also the input of surrender and trust in the Lord

Saint Bonaventure said “When we pray, the voice of the heart must be heard more than that proceeding from the mouth.” 

Thanks for joining us this morning.
