Using Grace

What is not possible to us by nature, let us ask the Lord to supply by the help of his grace. RB80.Prologue.41

Realizing that human nature will often fall short, Benedict invites us today to ask for God's grace to help in the accomplishment of good deeds.

No matter how sincere my intentions, the fact still remains that I often fall short. Six days into the New Year and I have already restarted my resolution to "listen" at least once daily. It is only through asking for God's grace and relying on it that my intentions and resolutions will ever bear fruit.

What am I doing today to remind myself to rely on God's providence and grace?
