May 19 (blindness)
O My Savior, Saint Dunstan was a bishop who served
the king of England as his personal advisor, until he directed the monarch to
give up his degenerate sexual ways. Because the king wanted to remain blind to
his sinfulness, he exiled the bishop. In certain ways, I am blind, too. I ask
Saint Dunstan to pray for me to become willing to face my sinfulness and
repent, and to pray for my friends and family members. He is also the patron
of physically blind people, so I ask him to intercede for the needs of those
who have poor or non-existent vision. Help us all to see You more clearly,
dear Lord. Saint Dunstan, pray for us. Amen.
