RESPONSORIAL PSALM:  The Lord is my shepherd;

                                                     There is nothing I shall want.

 

IMPULSES FOR PRAYER: Ps 118 (119);   Ez 34:11-16;   Heb 4:12-13

 

Meditation:

He is the repose of the dead,

The finder of the lost,

The light for those in darkness,

The redeemer of the captives,

The guide of the wandering,

The refuge of those that mourn,

The Shepherd of those who are saved.

Melito of Sardis, 2^nd century.

PRAYER

Dear God, in the battle that goes on in life,

I ask for a field that is fair.

A chance that is equal in all of the strife,

A chance to do and to dare.

And if I should win, let it be by the code,

With my heart and my honour held high;

But if I should lose, let me stand by the road,

And cheer as the winners pass by.
