Evening Prayers April 17 2009

Audio of Evening Prayers April 17, 2009.

Psalm 63:2-9; Daniel 3:57-88, 56; Psalm 149;  Hebrews 5:8-10

From ancient times the Church has had the custom of celebrating each day the Liturgy of the Hours, also known as the Divine Office. In this way the Church fulfills the Lord’s precept to pray without ceasing, at once offering its praise to God the Father and interceding for the salvation of the world. Join me in praying the Liturgy of the Hours today and throughout the Easter season.

St. Teresa of Avilla on humility

“We shall never learn to know ourselves except by endeavoring to know God; for, beholding His greatness, we realize our own littleness; His purity shows us our foulness; and by meditating upon His humility we find how very far we are from being humble.”

St. Theresa of Avila (Interior Castle)
