Almighty God, who through Jesus Christ has taught us to call Thee our
Father, we thank Thee that Thou hast chosen a name so dear to us to
reveal Thy care and Love. When our way is dark and our burden is heavy
and our hearts are perplexed, grant us the grace to know that Thou who
art directing every step of our journey art a God of Love, and Thy true
and perfect Name is Our Father in Heaven. Through Jesus Christ our
Lord. Amen.
"_Whosoever will lose his_
_life for my sake shall find it._"
(MATTHEW xvi. 25.)
