St Scholastica

 

Today is the feast of St Scholastica, in the 5th week of Ordinary Time.  

Ladysmith Black Mambazo sing: ‘Inhliziyo Zethu’. ‘You will make my heart pure’.   A pure heart is a heart that is open to God, that doesn’t seek its own advantage, but wants whatever God wants.  As I enter into prayer today, I ask for that openness of heart.  I ask the Lord to lead my heart to him, to guide me in the way he wants me to go.    

Today’s reading is from the Gospel of Mark.
