Paul


Lord, we thank you for the love you have poured out upon our family and we thank you for the gift of Paul. Bless him as he lives out his vocation of loving husband and father. Give him the graces he needs this day, and every day, in the workplace and at home. Continue to draw him ever closer to yourself and keep him safe. May his life be a witness to your peace, love, and mercy. Lord, teach us all to be generous; to serve you as you deserve; to give and not to count the cost; to fight and not to heed the wounds; to toil and not to ask for rest; to labor and not to ask for reward, save that of knowing that we do your will. Amen.
