Oh, ever generous God, today’s Gospel urges people to open their eyes to the signs of the times. Jesus wishes for people to read the signs of the times, that he is with them as the Son of God. Give me the same grace, Lord, to hear your words, knowing who you are. Heal my mind’s eye to recognize you in the scriptures I hear or read, and take your words to heart to follow your words as your disciples; words that heal body, mind, and heart, especially in my times of Eucharist prayer and adoration. Give me your words of consolation, healing, and forgiveness for the times I have failed to live up to the Baptism promises.
Amen.
