Lord Come to My Assistance


O God, come to my assistance.

O Lord, make haste to help me.


The Liturgy of the Hours begins with these two sentences throughout the day. Calling on God's help and calling to God in my time of need are two phrases that quickly come to my mind.


Being a person that likes short, easy to remember slogans and phrases, keeping these two in mind reminds me to call on God's presence throughout the day and at odd moments of the day when nothing much is happening. I need to train myself to be attentive to these phrases so that they become part of my nature. That way, they will be readily available when they are really necessary.
