Daily Reflection with Fr. Tomas Del Valle-Reyes



Dear Friends: Praying is not easy. Our daily routine calls for our full attention. And the world around us puts little value on prayer; our lives are full of material things but at the same time are getting emptier in God’s value.

For this reason, I will post a daily reflection and as you visit this site may the Holy Spirit within you come to your aid and guide you gently to the God who loves you

This world is yours

This world is yours, planned in eternity
created in a moment of sheer exuberance permeated with love
well made This place is yours, in its simplicity
blue sky and countryside, pure creativity
painted with care well made 
This day is yours, pure generosity
given for moments of gentle reflection
in the bustle of a day well made
This moment is yours in its entirety
a drop of time in an ocean of history
gifted with joy well made There is glory
within each sunrise, Lord a warm effusion of praise
reaching upwards and out connecting earth
with heaven creator with created
Shafts of sunlight arms outstretched in worship
encourage participation from those who watch
and wonder at the beauty of it all.
