About this episode

Sr. Ann reflects on the importance of recognizing that God hears each person's unique voice in worship and supplication.

In today’s Responsorial Psalm, we implore the Lord to let us see His face. We can rest assured that God hears our voice. He hears our words of worship, our words of thanksgiving, and our words of supplication. And He doesn’t hear them as a multitude of voices – he knows and hears every person’s unique voice. “Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened And I will give you rest.” Sr Ann reflects on today’s readings: Hosea 11:1-4, 8e-9 Psalm 80:2ac, 3b, 15-16 Matthew 10:7-15 Sr. Ann’s Books Deeper Conversion Extraordinary Grace for Ordinary Times More of the Holy Spirit Captured By Mercy This is a public episode.
