He Is Always At Our Side

One of the most frequently recommended spiritual practices is to be ever conscious that wherever we are, whatever we are doing, thinking, speaking - all of our earthly actions and failures to act - are done in the presence of God, Who is always at our side.



If our goal is to give Him glory we will soon amend our lives.

  1. Everyone can "practice the presence of God" as we were taught by the good nuns of my youth. Developing "triggers" to remind us to recall God's presence is easily possible today with digital alarms on watches and cell phones. I am constantly looking for anchors that when seeing and hearing them will cause me to turn to God amidst my daily chores. We need to spread this practice amongst our fellow Catholics.

    Michael, I read your latest book and wrote a review at my web site. Well done!

      I have an alarm set for three different times each day as a fail safe way of my not forgetting to pause and speak to the God Who loves me.

      I did see you outstanding review. Thank you. I am humbled by your generosity in reading the book and investing so much of your time in writing the review. You did a superb job in capturing its intent and purpose. The success of this simple effort to quench Our Lord's Thirst for our love rests in God's hands. I thank Him for using such gifted people as you as His assistants.

PRAYER TO BE PRESERVED FROM SUDDEN DEATH

MOST AMIABLE JESUS "I humbly implore Thee by Thy ignominious Scourging, The Crowning with Thorns, Thy Holy Cross, and by all Thy Goodness, not to permit me to pass out of this world without having received Thy most holy Sacraments." -Prayer of St. Vincent Ferrer

PRAYER OF ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA

"Eternal Father, all things are possible for You. Although You created us without our assistance, You will not save us unless we help. Therefore, I pray You re-create their wills so that they wish for what they do not wish for: I ask this of Your infinite mercy. You have created us out of nothing. Now that we exist have mercy on us. Re-make the vessel which You created in Your own image and likeness. Bring them back to Your grace through the grace and blood of You Son, the beloved Jesus Christ."
