July 10 – Saint Amalburga

Dear Holy Spirit, Saint Amalburga (d.690) was the mother of three children whom she home-schooled and raised in the Faith.  All three became canonized saints.  I ask her to intercede for the mothers I know, especially those involved in home-schooling.  Help them to raise their children under Your guidance and lead them into holy adult lives.  Teach all parents, O Lord, to rely on the Blessed Mother as their role model, so that the true Faith is passed onto their children.  Where adult children have strayed from the Church, send them angels and human witnesses who will bring them back.  Saint Amalburga, pray for us.  Amen.

Quotes for Today

Venerable Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)

Patience is power. Patience is not an absence of action; rather it is ‘timing’ — it waits on the right time to act, for the right principles and in the right way.”

The prayer above is from Terry Modica’s book Daily Prayers with the Saints.
