Oh, generous God, in today's reading from the Book of Wisdom we are invited to hear how far more excellent You are than anything You have created. Give me the grace today to realize that the entire world, and all creation, is only a manifestation of Your glory that is always in Your hands, as we all are. The glory of created things is but a sign of Your glory, and You love me so much You sent Your Son, Jesus, to suffer and die for my sins. You have done this because of Your everlasting love. I am filled with awe at this realization. Amen.
St. Elizabeth of Hungary, pray for me.
