Beautiful novena...

I found the most beautiful novena when on retreat a couple of weeks ago. This is such a wonderful novena, I believe that even if you don't usually pray novenas this one will absolutely touch your heart!

The Song of Songs

Introduction

The Song of Songs, meaning the greatest of songs (Song 1:1), contains in exquisite poetic form the sublime portrayal and praise of the mutual love of the Lord and his people. The Lord is the Lover and his people are the beloved. Describing this relationship in terms of human love, the author simply follows Israel's tradition. Isaiah (Isaiah 5:1-7; 54:4-8), Jeremiah (Jeremiah 2:2, 3, 32), and Ezekiel (Eze 16; 23) all characterize the covenant between the Lord and Israel as a marriage. Hosea the prophet sees the idolatry of Israel in the adultery of Gomer (Son 1-3). He also represents the Lord speaking to Israel's heart (Song 2:16) and changing her into a new spiritual people, purified by the Babylonian captivity and betrothed anew to her divine Lover "in justice and uprightness, in love and mercy" (Song 2:21).

Psalm 95

As I prayed this psalm in the morning, I thought of you and wanted to share these beautiful words in song. I know life is hard when you are carrying a cross that seems quite unbearable, but I want you not to loose hope in HIM who loves you and will get YOU through all the challenges of this life.

We keep you in our hearts of prayer,
