Today’s Consuming Fire Meditation- – A Daily Dose of the Flame of Love Diary Served Up with Today’s Scriptures
Fourth Thursday of Ordinary Time
Two by Two
“Watch and pray. When two or three gather, they take up the battle against the Prince of Darkness and his devastating power. Do not be idle!” (Jesus) (August 7, 1962)
Today’s Readings: Jesus summoned the Twelve and began to send them out two by two and gave them authority over unclean spirits. He instructed them to take nothing for the journey but a walking stick –no food, no sack, no money in their belts. (Mark 6)
Prayer Meditation- Lord, You sent Your disciples out two by two. We are not meant to be lone wolves in our walk with You! As the Holy Spirit informs us in the book of Ecclesiastes- “And if one can overpower him who is alone, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not quickly torn apart.”(Eccl 4:12), We are stronger in prayer when we gather together! Let us not be idle in praying, particularly the Rosary, together and take up the battle against evil in our world!
