Morning Prayer with the Oblate Family, July 26th

With Teresa Gallagher

Good morning – Maidin maith! We join Teresa Gallagher for today’s prayer.

Teresa is a native of Letterkenny, Co Donegal, Ireland – a beautiful county well  worth visiting to witness the splendour of Gods creation.

The reading we spend some time reflecting on this morning is about an earthen vessel and the extraordinary treasure it contains within.

Paul speaks of the earthen vessel,  a symbol of ourselves, which is fragile and of itself can do very little, but also holds a great treasure.

St. Paul in the scriptures tells us not to lose heart, not to despair.

While we are only earthen vessels, the treasure and a strength within us that  is the life and power of Jesus. 

Thank you for joining us in today’s reflection.
