October 7, 2025, Tuesday of the 27th Week in Ordinary Time-C OUR LADY OF THE ROSARY

Jonah 3:1-10

Psalm 130

Luke 10:38-42

“Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things.”  Luke 10:41

Lord, I didn’t sleep very well last night.  I woke up and my mind got busy-I was anxious and worried about many things.  There is so much on my plate right now.  I can appreciate Martha flying around the kitchen trying to make everything perfect-after all she must make everything perfect for the Messiah.  But when I take an objective look at all the stuff I’m anxious about-it’s not all that important.  In contrast to life and love and faith, it all kinda fades into the background.  Lord, with your grace I can reorder my priorities.  I can put you first.  I can sit at your feet, like Martha’s sister, Mary, and be enlightened with your word.  Today, Lord, I open my heart to you, to my family and to those you have put into my life.  May I make good choices in how I use this day—listening to and living your word.  Holy Mary pray for us.  Amen.
