PEACE=THE HOLY FAMILY!

 

PEACE=THE HOLY FAMILY!

 

ONLY ONCE

In all of HISTORY

Did we experience

A HOLY FAMILY

 

And the PEACE of God

No matter what this WORLD

Threw at them

JEASUS=MARY=and JOSEPH

Found PEACE=through it all

 

Wouldn’t it be GREAT

IF you and me

And OUR FANILIES could find

That PEACE OF GOD

In 2023?

 

“And let the PEACE OF CHRIST

Control your hearts

 

The PEACE into which

You were also called=in one body”                                                                                        Colossians 3:15

 

FAMILIES GO

Through so very much

BIRTHS=deaths=illness=

Infidelity=financial issues

And addictions and divorce

And LORD KNOWS=what else

 

Dear Lord=we pray

That you can HELP

OUR FAMILIES=

Hold on to the PEACE OF CHRIST

 

No matter what=the world

THROWS AT US

 

FINDING the peace of Christ

MAKING 2023

A YEAR FOR THE FAMILY

A year=in which we EMULATE

THE HOLY FAMILY!

 

“She gets up

While it is still night

 

She provides food

FOR HER FAMILY=and portions

For her female servants”                                                                                                  Proverbs 31:15

 

“But if a widow

Has children or grandchildren

These should learn=first of all

 

To put their religion=into practice

 

By caring=for their OWN FAMILY

And so repaying

Their parents and grandparents”                                                                                              1 Timothy 5:4

 

THE HOLY FAMILY=

Overcame it all=

And all this world=THROWS at it

By focusing on OTHERS

And let that LOVE

Lead the way

 

Dear Lord=we pray

THAT OUR VERY FAMILY

Can emulate=the Holy Family

And let our hearts and LOVE

For each other

LEAD THE WAY

 

The YEAR OF THE FAMILY

In 2023==finding GOD’S LOVE

Above all else

 

“I would have told you

These things=so

That in me

YOU MAY HAVE PEACE=

 

In this world

You will have trouble=BUT TAKE HEART!

I have overcome the world”                                                                                                      John 16:33

 

On the FEAST=of THE HOLY FAMILY

We pray=that you

MAKE OUR FAMILY=and us

A SIGN FOR PEACE AND LOVE

In today’s world

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our HOLY FAMILY=led by our Holy Father God!
