Today’s Readings

Dearest Lord,

You know well that I lost a friend this week.  After a long battle with his illness, Father Joey died.  In his last days, all he wanted was to leave the hospital, go home, and die among his family and community.  Thank you for granting him his last wish.  That evening on the very same day he returned to his community, he took one last breath and was gone.  Mercifully, no pain.  Only peace.
