Praying the Hours

God come to my assistance.
O Lord, make haste to help me.

Community prayer throughout the day begins with this simple refrain everyday.

It calls to mind the fact that it is only through God's assistance and God's ready help that we are able to even consider praying day after day. It is a reminder to me that without God even my best efforts often are mediocre and half hearted. It reminds me that there is a purpose greater than myself and my plans for the day.

May I always look toward God as the source of my comfort and aid.

Sr. Catherine, OSB
