LORD, hear my prayer;
let my cry come to you.
Do not hide your face from me
in the day of my distress.
Turn your ear to me;
when I call, answer me quickly. (Psalm 102:2-3 NABRE)
What a wonderful God we have! To think we can turn to him and pray as the Psalmist does in today's passage. He is afflicted, wasting away, and full of anguish. He knows his time is short, and so he pleads with the Lord for help.
Let us recognize our own afflictions and the short time we have. Let us offer our own pleas to God, that he would hear us and answer us.
Today, I will seek the Lord's help in my own struggles.
Saint Louise de Marillac, patroness of social workers, pray for us.
