June 29 (faith growth)
Blessed Redeemer, Saints Peter and Paul were leaders
and models in strengthening the faith of the infant Church, and I ask them to
pray for my faith to grow strong. Saint Paul wrote in his second letter to
Saint Timothy, "I remind you to stir into flame the gift of God that you
have." Wherever I am still a baby in my relationship with You, weak and
uncertain, I ask Saints Peter and Paul to pray for me to grow into spiritual
maturity. Help me, O Lord, to increase in faith and trust. Where Your presence
is but a spark in me, fan it into a flame that brightens other people's
lives. Saints Peter and Paul, pray for me. Amen.
