June 8 – Saint Medard

Jesus My Lord, Saint Medard served as a bishop during very difficult times, and his long life of spiritual leadership created a tremendous impression on the people.  Because of his patronage against bad weather, I ask him to intercede for me during the storms of my life as well as the storms in nature.  Protect me and my home.  And Lord, help the victims of hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes and other natural disasters.  Send in more helpers and multiply the supplies that are needed for their aid.  You calmed the storm on the Sea of Galilee; deliver us from the storms that are raging around us now.  Saint Medard, pray for us.  Amen.

Quote for Today

Saint William of York (d. 1154)

How can we move on with our lives and not waste time thinking about our hurts? We can turn to Jesus to free us from things that block us from living our life to the fullest.”

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