A Moment To Pause: Sunday 1st February 2026 #dailypodcast #scripturepodcast

Good morning and thank you for joining our Oblate short time to pause, reflect and pray together on Sunday February 1st 2026 of Ordinary Time. Thanks to Br Michael Moore OMI for today’s reflection:  In the name of the Father, and of the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen. Good morning and welcome, and thank you for joining us for our morning prayer with the Oblate family. The values of Jesus and God's kingdom are not the values of the world. God's kingdom is built upon justice, love, forgiveness, compassion, and respect for all. The world reveres power, prestige and privilege and wealth and control over others. The Beatitudes challenge the world's and our own values. Perhaps we could slowly read them today and see how they both encourage and call us to follow Christ in a deeper way. We now offer our own intentions. Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen. Lord, we thank you for your powerful word. May we listen to it and put it into practice each day. Thank you for joining us for our morning prayer. In the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
