T is for …
How do you use your †ime, †reasure (i.e., tithing) and †alen† in serving GOD ?
We all have unique ways that GOD has called us to serve Him and His people .
I also can continue glorifying GOD as I finish and use my doctoral degree !

My Church celebrated our ☼milestone☼ anniversary of our ♥Adoration♥ †Chapel† last night!
During his homily, our Bishop told us of five ways to pray at the Blessed Sacrament:
Praise Contrition THANKSgiving Petitions Communion
The fifth type means to simply be with GOD . Our Bishop also reminded us that the Eucharist and Perpetual Adoration both our important, yet taking the Body and Blood of CHRIST is the top priority of our faith.
Reverence Reference

🌞Everyday, I greet👋 GOD☝️ as soon as I 😵awake😲 and right before I go to 😴sleep💤 plus any moment in between. As I welcome His presence by opening my window 🌅shades🌇 to bring in the 🌈sunlight☀️, I simply pray🙏
This is the day the LORD has made
I love to wake up to Sweet Annie
Then throughout the day, I’ll pray before 💻working🎤 , 🍕eating🍧 and 🚘traveling✈️ . Prior to 🍱meals🍮, I have series of prayer💒 cards, yet I have a couple that are short and sweet…
GOD is good, GOD is great.
Also, another traditional one:
Bless us O LORD, for these thy gifts, which we are about to receive, from thy bounty, through CHRIST our LORD. AMEN.
Panoramic Park POV 🌳
Following the 🍜feast🍰, I also pray:
We give thee thanks to the Almighty GOD, who lives and reigns forever, and to the souls of the faithful departed, Rest In Peace. AMEN.
Our Groundhog pal also approached us for apples! 🐒
Once I’m about to hit the 🌆sack🌄, my bedtime prayers include the 🌹Rosary💍 and these from my childhood:
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the LORD, my soul to keep…
Guide me, JESUS, through the night, and wake me with the morning light. AMEN. If I should die before I wake, I pray the LORD, my soul to take. AMEN.
Thank you for another blessed day, LORD!

First and foremost, for me, ☼everyday☼, †The Prayer Way Adoration♥
San Antonio, TX (February 2013)
As a matter of fact, I spend every Thursday morning (my only day off from work out of the week) in my holy hour of obligation at our ♥Adoration♥ †Chapel†, and any other time when I can make a point to pray before the Blessed Sacrament.
Our Lady of the Lake University (where I’m earning my Ph.D.) ~ San Antonio, TX (March 2014)
Each and every one of my prayers begin with praise , because †GOD† deserves our glory , as we give our ♥LOVE♥ for Him.
San Antonio, TX (April 2014)
How about you join me in devoting even just one hour out of the week to ♥Adoration ♥ ~ simply to ♥LOVE♥ our †LORD†? If you have an Adoration Chapel with the Blessed Sacrament, I encourage you to commit to one hour of one day out of the week on a regular basis. Even if you don’t have one, keep adoring Him anywhere and everywhere ~ as I promise you: worship works wonders for your soul .
* “My soul magnifies the †LORD†, and my spirit rejoices in †GOD† my savior ” ~ Luke 1:46-47
