From Morning Prayer:
 
Our Lady of Mount Carmel
 
 
Jesus began to upbraid the cities where most of his mighty works had been done, because they did not repent.
 
"Woe to you, Chorazin!
Woe to you, Bethsaida!
 
For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
 
But I tell you, it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for Tyre and Sidon than for you.
 
And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? You shall be brought down to Hades. For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. But I tell you that it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom than for you."
 
(from the Gospel of Mt. 11: 20–24)
 
I pray that this text finds you in humble service to the least among us.
 
I pray that we may all have had a day of repenting.
 
Please pray for all those listed in all the parts of the litany from yesterday (Part 1)(Part 2)(Part 3)(Part 4).
 
Humility, Obedience, and Glorifying God  πŸ™ ✌️
