Reflect
This week there are a lot of Saints to think about in our reflections.
Today is the Feast of St. Cyril of Jerusalem. Cyril lived in the fourth century, and is remembered as a Bishop as well as a great theologian.
Cyril wasn't always liked and accepted during his life. He is remembered today as a great saint, but a few times during his life he was forced into exile because the people around him didn't like the things that he was teaching.
We all have times in life when we have to deliver difficult messages, or perhaps say things that other people might not want to hear. It's probably tempting to run away and hide, but in the end we have to remember that some messages are important.
Pray
Loving Father,
Be with all of those who try to spread your Gospel to others, and be with us too in the times when we have to tell people things that they might not want to hear.
Give us courage, wisdom and strength.
Amen.
Challenge
Your challenge today is to spend ten minutes alone with God...
