Prayer: Anthony of Padua
Jesus!
A name that comforts sinners and offers blessed hope. A name that is a joyful
cry from the heart that is music to the ear.
I often just pray Jesus' name for there is such comfort and joy there and it draws me close to him.
ReplyDeleteI love the simple Jesus prayer.
DeleteSometimes my prayer simply is: Thank you, Jesus. I'm sorry, Jesus. I love you, Jesus.
