Ma m\u00e8re et mon p\u00e8re invitaient tous ceux qu&rsquo;ils connaissaient \u00e0 venir d\u00eener dehors avec nous.  Quand nous \u00e9tions enfants, nous jouions \u00e0 d\u2019\u00e9normes jeux de capture du drapeau et nous courions g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement pendant des heures pendant que les adultes discutaient et grillaient.<\/p>\n<p>Je me suis souvenu de ces jours r\u00e9cemment, car mes enfants m&rsquo;ont dit que leur jour pr\u00e9f\u00e9r\u00e9 chaque mois \u00e9tait celui o\u00f9 nous allions \u00e0 un d\u00eener communautaire local.  L&rsquo;id\u00e9e est similaire, dans la mesure o\u00f9 un grand groupe de personnes partage un repas ensemble, avec l&rsquo;ajout de musique live (\u00e0 la fin du d\u00eener, les gens apportent des instruments, jouent de la musique et chantent).  Ce genre d\u2019\u00e9v\u00e9nements est si bon pour nous, et ce n\u2019est pas \u00e9tonnant.<\/p>\n<p>J\u00e9sus lui-m\u00eame \u00e9tait un grand amateur du repas communautaire \u2013 dans les \u00c9vangiles, nous lisons les noces de Cana, la Derni\u00e8re C\u00e8ne ou comment il pr\u00e9parait du poisson grill\u00e9 pour ses disciples sur la plage apr\u00e8s sa r\u00e9surrection.  J\u00e9sus \u00e9tait \u00e9galement fr\u00e9quemment critiqu\u00e9 pour avoir partag\u00e9 des repas avec des p\u00e9cheurs.<\/p>\n<div class=\"block-image-copyrigth-wrap\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n<p>Artem Stepanov |  Shutterstock<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Organiser un rassemblement d\u2019\u00e9t\u00e9 en plein air<\/h2>\n<p>L&rsquo;\u00e9t\u00e9 est la p\u00e9riode id\u00e9ale pour se rassembler dehors.  C&rsquo;est g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement moins stressant pour un h\u00f4te car la circulation pi\u00e9tonni\u00e8re reste principalement en dehors de la maison.  Voici quelques id\u00e9es sur la fa\u00e7on d\u2019organiser un repas communautaire cette ann\u00e9e.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-aleteia-rich-list\"><span>O\u00f9?<\/span><br \/><strong><\/strong><br \/><\/h2>\n<p>Essayez de l&rsquo;h\u00e9berger dans votre jardin ou dans celui d&rsquo;un ami.  Vous n&rsquo;avez peut-\u00eatre pas un bon espace pour ce genre de r\u00e9union, mais peut-\u00eatre que quelqu&rsquo;un qui en a est pr\u00eat \u00e0 co-h\u00e9berger avec vous.  Ou, si vous disposez d&rsquo;un parc local avec un bon espace et des grillades (et des toilettes), cela pourrait \u00e9galement \u00eatre une excellente option.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-aleteia-rich-list\"><span>OMS?<\/span><br \/><strong><\/strong><br \/><\/h2>\n<p>Rendez votre rassemblement aussi petit ou aussi grand que vous le souhaitez.  J&rsquo;ai souvent constat\u00e9 qu&rsquo;il y avait beaucoup de personnes que j&rsquo;aimerais inviter, mais je n&rsquo;avais alors qu&rsquo;une quantit\u00e9 limit\u00e9e de bande passante ou de week-ends\/soir\u00e9es gratuites disponibles.  Organiser un \u00e9v\u00e9nement o\u00f9 je peux inviter plusieurs amis\/familles\/couples est attrayant.  Ou vous pouvez utiliser le barbecue pour faire connaissance avec diff\u00e9rentes personnes de votre paroisse.  Vous pourriez peut-\u00eatre inviter une nouvelle personne ou une nouvelle famille \u00e0 venir griller un brunch ou un d\u00e9jeuner avec vous apr\u00e8s la messe.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-aleteia-rich-list\"><span>NOURRITURE?<\/span><br \/><strong><\/strong><br \/><\/h2>\n<p>Si vous souhaitez inviter de nombreuses personnes, ou m\u00eame si vous souhaitez simplement inviter quelques amis, une fa\u00e7on de g\u00e9rer les co\u00fbts est de demander aux gens d&rsquo;apporter de la viande \u00e0 griller et\/ou des accompagnements ou des boissons \u00e0 partager, \u00e0 la mani\u00e8re d&rsquo;un repas-partage.  Vous pouvez pr\u00e9voir une entr\u00e9e ou un dessert, et de l&rsquo;espace pour recevoir \u00e0 c\u00f4t\u00e9 d&rsquo;assiettes et de tasses, par exemple.  Les gens veulent souvent se r\u00e9unir, mais ne veulent pas du travail d&rsquo;accueil et sont heureux de contribuer en nourriture \u00e0 la cause.  Cela aide \u00e9galement tous ceux qui ont des sensibilit\u00e9s alimentaires, afin que les invit\u00e9s puissent apporter des choses qu&rsquo;ils peuvent manger sans se sentir exclus (car tout le monde apporte \u00e9galement sa propre nourriture). <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-aleteia-rich-list\"><span>FLAIR?<\/span><br \/><strong><\/strong><br \/><\/h2>\n<p>Ensuite, en ce qui concerne tous les d\u00e9tails, personnalisez l\u2019\u00e9v\u00e9nement.

Peut-\u00eatre que vous montrerez vos prouesses en mati\u00e8re de cornhole et organiserez des tournois tout en grillant et en mangeant.  Peut-\u00eatre que votre repas sera un \u00e9v\u00e9nement apr\u00e8s le d\u00eener, o\u00f9 vous r\u00f4tirez des guimauves pour des s&rsquo;mores, puis observerez les \u00e9toiles ensemble pendant que petits et grands chasseront les lucioles.

My mom and dad would invite everyone they knew to come have dinner outside with us. As a kid, we played huge games of capture the flag, and generally just ran around for hours while the adults chatted and grilled.u003c\/pu003ennu003cpu003eI remembered those days recently as my kids have told me that their favorite day every month is when we go to a local community dinner. The idea is similar, in that a large group of people share a meal together -- with the addition of live music (at the end of the dinner people bring instruments, play music and sing). These kinds of events are so good for us, and it is no wonder.u003c\/pu003en\",\"typeform_embed_code\":\"\",\"rightcolumn\":{\"items\":[\"type\":\"right-column-banner\",\"data\":\"enabled\":\"1\",\"image\":\"full\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png?w=300u0026h=250u0026crop=1\",\"thumb\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png?w=300u0026h=250u0026crop=1\",\"thumb_big\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png?w=300u0026h=250u0026crop=1\",\"uncropped\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png?w=300\",\"medium\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png?w=300u0026h=230u0026crop=1\",\"small\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png?w=220u0026h=110u0026crop=1\",\"credits\":\"title\":\"Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300u0026#215;250-1.png\",\"copyright\":\"\",\"link\":\"\",\"caption\":\"\",\"alt\":\"Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300u0026#215;250-1.png\",\"link\":\"https:\/\/aleteia.org\/2024\/04\/02\/join-aleteia-in-2024-for-four-spectacular-pilgrimages\/?utm_source=Aleteiau0026utm_medium=banners\",\"geolinks\":[],\"add_target_blank\":\"1\",\"enabled_only_home\":false,\"disabled_only_home\":false,\"image_logged_in\":798152,\"link_logged_in\":\"https:\/\/aleteia.org\/2024\/04\/02\/join-aleteia-in-2024-for-four-spectacular-pilgrimages\/?utm_source=Aleteiau0026utm_medium=banners\",\"add_cd\":\"1\",\"disable_in_app\":false,\"ap_item_name\":\"donation\",\"ap_promotion_name\":\"support_aleteia\",\"image_loggedin\":\"full\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png?w=300u0026h=250u0026crop=1\",\"thumb\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png?w=300u0026h=250u0026crop=1\",\"thumb_big\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png?w=300u0026h=250u0026crop=1\",\"uncropped\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png?w=300\",\"medium\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png?w=300u0026h=230u0026crop=1\",\"small\":\"https:\/\/wp.en.aleteia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300x250-1.png?w=220u0026h=110u0026crop=1\",\"credits\":\"title\":\"Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300u0026#215;250-1.png\",\"copyright\":\"\",\"link\":\"\",\"caption\":\"\",\"alt\":\"Aleteia-Pilgrimage-300u0026#215;250-1.png\",\"link_loggedin\":\"http:\/\/u0026#038;cd1=Cecilia%20Piggu0026#038;cd14=Lifestyle\",\"type\":\"daily-prayer-menu\",\"data\":\"title\":\"Daily prayer\",\"fotd\":\"Feast of the day\",\"prayer\":\"ID\":804922,\"published\":1717459236,\"daily_prayer\":\"Daily Prayer\",\"today_we_celebrate\":\"And today we celebrate...\",\"contents\":\"saint\":\"Saint of the Day: Bl.

It\u2019s about them.\u201d I stopped finding time for what I used to be good at. My gardening, my poetry, my love of psychology and sociology and the natural sciences, even my social life. It\u2019s not that there wasn\u2019t time for it all, so much as it felt strange to me to focus on any part of me that didn\u2019t support my new, all-important identity as mother.\u00a0u003c\/spanu003eu003c\/pu003enu003cpu003eu003cstrongu003eI figured that this loss of the rest of my identity was natural and necessary u0026#8212; a sign that I was doing motherhood right.\u00a0u003c\/strongu003eu003c\/pu003enu003cpu003eu003cspan style=\"font-weight:400;\"u003eAnd truly, God u003c\/spanu003eu003ciu003eu003cspan style=\"font-weight:400;\"u003edoesu003c\/spanu003eu003c\/iu003eu003cspan style=\"font-weight:400;\"u003e ask total self-sacrifice of us.

I started to discover myself again. I started checking books out of the library. I started listening to TED Talks while I folded laundry, and cooked interesting meals, when I had the energy, for the sheer pleasure of the art.

I stopped questioning whether my own interests and talents were appropriate for a young mother of babies and toddlers to pursue.

To put my kids first. To throw myself into this amazing new vocation, no matter what it meant. I went into motherhood sure of exactly one thing: That this role is not supposed to be about me.u003c\/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=\"font-weight:400;\"u003eI wasn\u2019t totally wrong. Motherhood is a noble and a difficult calling to constantly put the needs of your children first. The work of motherhood is largely invisible, largely thankless, and totally exhausting. A mother\u2019s role is one of radical selflessness.\u00a0u003c\/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=\"font-weight:400;\"u003eI knew what I was signing up for.\u00a0u003c\/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=\"font-weight:400;\"u003eWhen my first child was born, I felt a tug of resentment as I saw the ways my life was changing. But instead of asking myself what I was missing, I firmly told myself, \u201cYou\u2019re a mother now -- your life isn\u2019t about you. It\u2019s about them.\u201d I stopped finding time for what I used to be good at. My gardening, my poetry, my love of psychology and sociology and the natural sciences, even my social life. It\u2019s not that there wasn\u2019t time for it all, so much as it felt strange to me to focus on any part of me that didn\u2019t support my new, all-important identity as mother.\u00a0u003c\/spanu003ernrnu003cstrongu003eI figured that this loss of the rest of my identity was natural and necessary -- a sign that I was doing motherhood right.\u00a0u003c\/strongu003ernrnu003cspan style=\"font-weight:400;\"u003eAnd truly, God u003c\/spanu003eu003ciu003eu003cspan style=\"font-weight:400;\"u003edoesu003c\/spanu003eu003c\/iu003eu003cspan style=\"font-weight:400;\"u003e ask total self-sacrifice of us.

Heaven is supposed to be a place where I\u2019m really myself, for the first time -- so how could it be that my vocation, my own personal path to heaven, should make\u00a0 me recognize myself less and less?\u00a0u003c\/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=\"font-weight:400;\"u003eu003cstrongu003eI began to think of motherhood as a gift, and part of my identity, not as job that subsumes every other thing that makes me who I am.u003c\/strongu003e It changed everything.

I started listening to TED Talks while I folded laundry, and cooked interesting meals, when I had the energy, for the sheer pleasure of the art.

But it\u2019s impossible, of course, to be married against your will, whatever may seem to have happened. Christina was held captive for several years before escaping and running away to be a hermitess.

At this, Seraphina stopped attempting to reconcile with her husband and retired to her own quarters for a life of prayer. Alexander finally ejected Seraphina from the house and forced her to go live with the Poor Clares. Seraphina prayed continuously for Alexander\u2019s conversion but finally felt led to abandon hope that he would change. She was received into the Poor Clares and took vows as a nun. Some time later, Alexander repented and asked Serafina to return but she declined. He lived a solitary life of penance and preceded her in death.

But Fabiola chose to remarry, despite the clear teaching of Jesus, and spent many years away from the Church. When her second husband died, though, Fabiola did public penance and returned to the Church. To remove herself from the temptations of the world, she then sold all her property to build the first hospital in the West and was greatly admired by the curmudgeonly St. Jerome.u003c\/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"u003eu003cstrongu003eSt. Gummarusu003c\/strongu003e (717-774) was a Belgian nobleman whose marriage to Guinmarie, an arrogant noblewoman, was arranged by the king. Guinmarie was abusive to the servants in Gummarus\u2019 absence and refused to pay them; try though he might, he could never convince her to seek a relationship with Jesus, and after many years of fruitless effort the two separated.

At 15, she made a vow of virginity, but her parents refused to accept this and arranged a marriage for her. She went to the bishop for help, but he was bribed into ignoring her pleas and Christina was \u201cmarried\u201d against her will. But it\u2019s impossible, of course, to be married against your will, whatever may seem to have happened. Christina was held captive for several years before escaping and running away to be a hermitess. After a few more years, her putative husband gave up and obtained an annulment on the grounds that Christina had clearly never given her consent. Cristina went on to be a mystic and an abbess.u003c\/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"u003eu003cstrongu003eBl.

When she humbly submitted to such treatment, her holiness spurred him to a rage that led to several murder attempts. At this, Seraphina stopped attempting to reconcile with her husband and retired to her own quarters for a life of prayer. Alexander finally ejected Seraphina from the house and forced her to go live with the Poor Clares. Seraphina prayed continuously for Alexander\u2019s conversion but finally felt led to abandon hope that he would change. She was received into the Poor Clares and took vows as a nun. Some time later, Alexander repented and asked Serafina to return but she declined. He lived a solitary life of penance and preceded her in death.

Her husband, on the other hand, ridiculed her faith and ultimately left her for a concubine. Columba may have been dismayed by this turn of events (at least out of concern for his soul), but it proved providential. It was illegal for noble homes owned by women to be searched by the authorities. With her husband gone, Columba's house became a hub of underground activity. Columba spent the rest of her life an evangelist and a catechist, the protector of Korea\u2019s one (hunted) priest, and the heart of her community, before being martyred at age 40.u003c\/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"u003eu003cstrongu003eSt. Dominic Ninhu003c\/strongu003e (1835-1862) was a Vietnamese farmer urged into marriage by his parents.

Nous pouvons prier pour leur bien-\u00eatre, leur prosp\u00e9rit\u00e9, leur protection, et leur abondance. Nous pouvons \u00e9galement prier pour ceux qui nous ont nui et pour ces individus qui nous ont heurt\u00e9s, et demander \u00e0 Dieu de nous aider \u00e0 leur pardonner et \u00e0 leur t\u00e9moigner de la compassion.<\/p>\n<h3> Invoquer pour la sant\u00e9 et la s\u00fbret\u00e9 de nos amis.<\/h3>\n<p>\u00d4 Seigneur, nous te confions nos proches, nos propres familles et nos connaissances. Prot\u00e8ge, cher Dieu, sur eux, avec sauvegarde -les de tout danger et de toute maladie. Accorde, Seigneur, la bien-\u00eatre du corps avec de l\u2019esprit pour eux, et aussi la paix au sein de leur c\u0153ur. Puissante soit la volont\u00e9 pour que ta guidance omnipotente les esprits veille et les guide chacun au long de cette journ\u00e9e, pour qu\u2019ils puissent vivre dans la protection ainsi que la s\u00e9r\u00e9nit\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p>Nous te prions aussi pour nos enfants, Seigneur tout-puissant, pour qu\u2019ils grandissent dans la foi et dans l\u2019amour de ton saint nom. Accorde, \u00f4 Dieu, la sagesse et la force n\u00e9cessaires afin de affronter les d\u00e9fis de la vie, et dirige leurs pas sur le chemin de la v\u00e9rit\u00e9 ainsi que de la justice.<\/p>\n<p>Enfin, nous tous te prions \u00e0 nos amis ainsi que nos voisins, Seigneur, pour qu\u2019ils connaissent la joie de ton amour et la paix de ton pardon. Donne-leur, \u00f4 Dieu, des c\u0153urs pleins de g\u00e9n\u00e9rosit\u00e9 en vue de partager avec ceux que dans le besoin, et bras largement ouvertes en vue de accueillir ceux qui sont seuls et abandonn\u00e9s.<\/p>\n<h3> Prier pour nos ennemis ainsi que ceux qui sont nous ont offens\u00e9s. <\/h3>\n<p>Seigneur Dieu, J\u00e9sus, nous vous prions pour nos ennemis et aussi pour ceux qui nous-m\u00eames ont offens\u00e9s. Accorde-leur, \u00f4 Christ, votre mis\u00e9ricorde et aussi votre pardon, ainsi que ouvre leur c\u0153ur \u00e0 la lumi\u00e8re de ta v\u00e9rit\u00e9. Aide-nous, Seigneur, \u00e0 leur montrer de la compassion et aussi \u00e0 leur pardonner comme tu nous-m\u00eames as pardonn\u00e9. Que votre paix r\u00e8gne dans nos c\u0153urs et que ton amour guide notre actions, pour que nous puissions vivre en harmonie avec tous ceux qui sont nous entourent.<\/p>\n<h3> Appr\u00e9hender la pri\u00e8re : <\/h3>\n<p>En conclusion, la oraison nous souviens notre devoir tel que prog\u00e9niture de Dieu : exister des t\u00e9moin de sa lumi\u00e8re et de son affection dans l\u2019 p\u00e9riode affect\u00e9e aux t\u00e9n\u00e8bres. \u00c0 travers nos mots et notre actions, nous r\u00e9pandons l\u2019\u00c9vangile de l\u2019 s\u00e9r\u00e9nit\u00e9 et de la rapprochement, amenant l\u2019attente et la cicatrisation \u00e0 un milieu ab\u00eem\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p>Dans l\u2019 spiritualit\u00e9 chr\u00e9tienne, le aube rev\u00eat l\u2019 valeur distincte, symbolisant le renouveau et l\u2019 r\u00e9g\u00e9n\u00e9ration spirituelle. C\u2019est \u00e0 l\u2019aube de chaque journ\u00e9e que le c\u0153ur se oriente vers Dieu dans la pri\u00e8re, s\u2019effor\u00e7ant \u00e0 \u00eatre \u00e9clair\u00e9e par la lumi\u00e8re c\u00e9leste. L\u2019habitude des pri\u00e8res matinales se r\u00e9v\u00e8le profond\u00e9ment enracin\u00e9e dans la tradition chr\u00e9tienne, offrant une p\u00e9riode exclusif pour \u00e9tablir une connexion avec l\u2019\u00c9ternel et se pr\u00e9parer mentalement aux d\u00e9fis de la journ\u00e9e \u00e0 venir.<\/p>\n<p>En au c\u0153ur au sein de ces oraisons matinales se trouve souvent une d\u00e9votion sp\u00e9ciale pour Marie, la maternelle de J\u00e9sus et personnage sainte respect\u00e9e par de nombreux fid\u00e8les. En qualit\u00e9 de interm\u00e9diaire au milieu de les hommes et Dieu, Marie reste sollicit\u00e9e pour m\u00e9dier en notre nom, nous orientant dans le chemin de la saintet\u00e9 et de la gr\u00e2ce divine. Sa pr\u00e9sence parentale fournit consolation et abri, cercant nos oraisons matinales d\u2019une d\u00e9licatesse c\u00e9leste.<\/p>\n<p>\u00c0 par les pri\u00e8res du matin, on est invit\u00e9s \u00e0 nous rallier \u00e0 Marie au sein de une approche de sanctification personnelle. Par m\u00e9ditant au sujet de sa vie et ses vertus, nous cherchons \u00e0 imiter sa humilit\u00e9, sa puret\u00e9 et son ob\u00e9issance \u00e0 la volont\u00e9 du Dieu. \u00c0 travers sa saintet\u00e9 parfaite, Marie se transforme en pour nous un mod\u00e8le de vie chr\u00e9tienne, on rappelant l\u2019importance de la pri\u00e8re et de la contemplation dans nos cheminement spirituel.<\/p>\n<p>Unissons nos voix dans la pri\u00e8re matinale, dans l\u2019unit\u00e9 de notre foi, en nous tournant vers Marie, la m\u00e8re de J\u00e9sus. Au sein de notre monde tourment\u00e9 par la guerre et la division, optons \u00e0 la pri\u00e8re comme un moyen pour retrouver la s\u00e9r\u00e9nit\u00e9 et la r\u00e9conciliation. Les chr\u00e9tiens ont la possibilit\u00e9 exprimer une pri\u00e8re pour la Vierge Marie <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/editionsbussiere.com\/blog\/goto\/https:\/\/www.avemariasound.org\/\" >sur le web.<\/a> Que nos pri\u00e8res s\u2019\u00e9l\u00e8vent vers le ciel, comme un hommage re\u00e7u avec faveur par Dieu, pour qu\u2019il puisse \u00e9clairer nos pas vers la voie de la justice et de la v\u00e9rit\u00e9. Saint Paul nous exhorte dans ses lettres \u00e0 prier sans cesse, en toutes circonstances, pour que notre communion \u00e0 Dieu soit solide et passionn\u00e9e. La pri\u00e8re, quand elle est sinc\u00e8rement offerte, a le pouvoir pour transformer les c\u0153urs et de modifier le destin de l\u2019histoire.<\/p>\n<p>La pri\u00e8re du matin est donc un moment avantag\u00e9 afin de nous consacrer \u00e0 Dieu avec l\u2019intercession de Marie, en offrant nos louanges, nos remerciements ainsi que nos intentions les plus intimes. Dans la qui\u00e9tude du l\u2019aurore, nous sommes invit\u00e9s \u00e0 se tourner \u00e0 cette m\u00e8re sacr\u00e9e, qui nous guide avec affection au sujet de le chemin du la foi et de l\u2019amour divin. En associant nos voix \u00e0 celle-ci du Marie, nous haussant notre pri\u00e8res matinales envers du tr\u00f4ne de la gr\u00e2ce, s\u00fbrs que nos supplications seront entendues et accueillies aupr\u00e8s de du c\u0153ur mis\u00e9ricordieux de Dieu.<\/p>\n<h2> Pri\u00e8re pour le d\u00e9but de journ\u00e9e avec Dieu et la Vierge Marie<\/h2>\n<p>\u00d4 Tout-Puissant et Mis\u00e9ricordieux Seigneur, en ce jour qui se l\u00e8ve sous la clart\u00e9 de ta lumi\u00e8re c\u00e9leste, je viens \u00e0 Toi avec foi et modestie. Que cette jour qui commence soit consacr\u00e9e \u00e0 ta gloire sainte, que chaque battement de mon c\u0153ur |chaque regard de mes yeux|chacune de mes paroles|chacun de mes gestes} te soit offert en offrande. Que chaque respiration qui anime mon \u00eatre soit un souffle de pri\u00e8re |un souffle vers toi|un souffle de vie en toi}. Priez, que nos pri\u00e8res montent, que nos c\u0153urs implorent, suppliez, priez.<\/p>\n<p>Comme Marie, la m\u00e8re sainte qui a port\u00e9 en son sein l\u2019enfant J\u00e9sus, accompagne-moi dans ce voyage de foi et de d\u00e9votion. Que je puisse, par le biais de les pages de l\u2019\u00c9vangile, rencontrer la lueur pour \u00e9clairer mes pas et fortifier ma foi. Comme Pierre, donne-moi la force et le courage de surmonter les tourments de l\u2019existence avec une foi in\u00e9branlable en ta divine providence.<\/p>\n<p>Au cours de ce p\u00e9riode de Car\u00eame, o\u00f9 les chr\u00e9tiens et les fid\u00e8les se pr\u00e9parent \u00e0 c\u00e9l\u00e9brer la r\u00e9surrection de notre Seigneur bien-aim\u00e9, octroie-moi, Seigneur, la gr\u00e2ce du r\u00e9veil spirituel. Que mon esprit soit purifi\u00e9 de toute souillure, afin qu\u2019il devienne un lieu sacr\u00e9 o\u00f9 tu r\u00e9sides. Que ma pri\u00e8re, inspir\u00e9e par l\u2019exemple de Fran\u00e7ois d\u2019Assise, r\u00e9sonne tel un hymne de louange \u00e0 travers les si\u00e8cles.<br \/>\nDieu Tout-Puissant, que chaque jour soit impr\u00e9gn\u00e9 de ton amour, que tous les moments soit une occasion de te voir et de te servir dans mes semblables. Que mon chemin soit un t\u00e9moignage vivant de ton amour infini pour tous. Puissent les mots de la pri\u00e8re de Hozana monter vers toi comme un doux parfum, enveloppant chacune de mes journ\u00e9es dans une ambiance de paix. Priez, \u00c9glise, Fran\u00e7ois, Hozana.<\/p>\n<p>Que mon c\u0153ur, Seigneur, devienne une manifestation du tien, rempli d\u2019amour, de compassion et de mis\u00e9ricorde envers autrui. Que chacune de mes pens\u00e9es et de mes actions soit dirig\u00e9e par le Saint-Esprit, afin que je puisse contribuer \u00e0 l\u2019av\u00e8nement de ta justice sur ce monde.<\/p>\n<p>Que cette journ\u00e9e constitue une nouvelle \u00e9tape dans mon cheminement spirituel, un moment de grandir dans la foi. Seigneur, envahis mon c\u0153ur, \u00e9tablis-le comme ton sanctuaire, o\u00f9 ta pr\u00e9sence se manifeste constamment. Que chaque battement de mon c\u0153ur devienne un chant \u00e0 ta louange, Seigneur, pour l\u2019\u00e9ternit\u00e9. Amen.<\/p>\n<p>Dans le r\u00e9veil spirituel de tout \u00e2me chr\u00e9tienne, la supplication est essentielle. Elle est la connexion \u00e9troite entre le croyant divin et sa m\u00e8re c\u00e9leste, Marie, qui interc\u00e8de en faveur de nous en face de son sacr\u00e9 Fils. Par le biais de la supplication, les fid\u00e8les p\u00e9n\u00e9trons au c\u0153ur de la brillance de l\u2019\u00c9vangile, men\u00e9s sous le Saint-Esprit, dans le but de d\u00e9celer la v\u00e9rit\u00e9 et la b\u00e9n\u00e9diction que J\u00e9sus nous dispense.<\/p>\n<h2>R\u00e9flexion sur la Parole divine : <\/h2>\n<p>Nous avons la capacit\u00e9 de contempler en ce qui concerne un extrait religieux qui nous parle de l\u2019affection du Seigneur.
