The family was in a restaurant eating following a very long night and morning of launching out into the deep (+ + +), and after having finished their meal, the young daughter led her family in saying a prayer of thanksgiving.
While the family was praying, the mother wondered why they were praying so quietly.
She recommended that they speak louder so more people could here and benefit from the authentic Catholic witness.
After the family finished praying, the mom said much louder, "Thank you, God, for everything!"
To which the daughter replied, "Mom, no one's listening."
To which the mother replied, "You see the problems God is having."
May we make it a priority to THANK GOD for everything, OFTEN, and LISTEN to His voice so we can follow up on His gracious inspirations.
God is at work in you!
Have a wonderful day, a wonderful life, and a wonderful eternity!
