When Saint Ignatius of Loyola taught people to find God in all things, I wonder if he had ever experienced searching for God in a house filled with people whose only goal in life seemed to be creating chaos?

As we open our hearts during prayer, we can realise that when St. Ignatius of Loyola taught us to find God in all things, all people, and all events, he did not mean just in the quiet but also in the chaos, in our thoughts, and in our work and actions. 

We pray, Lord,

In quiet times, we see your face and we feel your holy presence

In busy and hectic times, we tend to run aimlessly away from your help.

In our most fatigued and stressful times, we need you most.

Send us your calming Spirit. Lighten our hearts, Lord.

Amen.
