Despise Not Thy Poor Creature

Posted on by mseagrif

O unfathomable good, that fillest heaven and earth, incline Thyself graciously this day and despise not they poor creature. Lord, if I am not worthy of Thee, yet do I stand in need of Thee. Ah, gentle Lord, art Thou not He Who with one word created heaven and earth? Lord, with one word, canst Thou restore health to my sick soul? O Lord, do unto me according to Thy grace, according to Thy infinite mercy, and not according to my deserts.”

 

Blessed Henry Suso, O.P.

My vocation as a Lay Dominican created an insatiable desire to learn, study, live and share my Faith. For more than ten years I led a Prison Ministry program and have spent more than a decade promoting Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration. Now retired, I aspire to promote zeal for the salvation of souls, awe and amazement for the Holy Eucharist and Eucharistic Adoration, and fidelity to the Truths of our Catholic Faith.
