 FEBRUARY 5 Catholic Church Our Guide |
PRAYER. In Your mercy, O Lord, You have instituted the Church to be the guide of Your people. Help me to put her teachings into practice. |
|
WE have need to watch against narrowness
of mind lest we suppose ourselves to have
such a clear knowledge of God's ways, as to rely
implicitly on our own notions.
In this perplexity of mind the Church Catholic is our divinely intended guide. She sure, from local prejudices, and excitements of the day. |
