Lord, grant us the grace to recognize that everything is 'gift' and that by ourselves, there is really nothing we can be proud of.

Christ invites us to 'enter the narrow' door, which is not a 'passage that entails following rites and rituals.' He rather invites us to a way of life that involves growth in our relationship with a loving and merciful God who wants all to be saved.Follow the readings here: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/082425.cfm

Lord, I am weak, come to my aid.Sunday's readings present examples of divisions caused by the presence of God in society.  In faith, we are asked to choose: the division from sin and alignment to faith.  It is not easy but the Lord and all the saints are here to help us.  Heaven is our reward.   Link to the Sunday readings: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/081725.cfm
