Thursday of the Twelfth Week in Ordinary Time
Saint Irenaeus (d. 202)
Readings of the day: RB 21 The Deans of the Monastery
Mass: 2 K 24:8-17; Resp Ps 79; Mt 7:21-29
Only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven will enter the Kingdom of heaven.
It occurs to me that I should get down on my knees and pray a simple prayer attributed to St Bridget of Sweden (d. 1373):Lord, show me your way and make me willing to follow it. Amen.
St. Irenaeus, pray for us.
Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them
will be like a wise man who built his house on rock.
