Dear Jesus my Savior, Saint Melchior was one of the Magi who traveled far from home in order to find You in the newborn king. I place into Your protection all the journeys I will be making this year—the trips I have to take, the vacations I plan, the errands I run, and the most important journey of all, my spiritual walk. Saint Melchior, pray for my protection from accidents, getting lost, bad timing, unnecessary trips, and the pot-holes in the road to Heaven. I seek Your help, O God, in recognizing the guidance You send me, just as Saint Melchior followed the star of Bethlehem. Saint Melchior, pray for me. Amen.

God never forgets you, He knows your needs. Show that you are generous in accepting whatever He may send you in the future. Nothing will happen to you without Him knowing it.”
