Twenty-ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time - Sun, October 19, 2014

Heavenly Father, we confess to you that so often our heart is full of selfish things. But in moments like these, Father, we recognize that you are what we most need and your will is our heart's desire. Please kindle your Spirit in us so that we may see through any selfish deception that would rob us of having you first in our life. Forgive us when we are petty, selfish and shallow. May we know you as much as possible for a mortal to know you, not so that we may be full, but that you may be honored. Because of your grace and in the name of Infant Jesus pray. Amen.
