Affection for God

Praying

St. Tobias Parish issued the following announcement on Sept. 1.

“A heart inhabited by affection for God also makes a thought that is without words become a prayer, or an invocation before a sacred image, or a kiss sent toward a church. It is lovely when mothers teach their little children to send a kiss to Jesus or to Our Lady. How much tenderness there is in this! At that moment the heart of the child is transformed into a place of prayer. And it is a gift of the Holy Spirit.”—Pope Francis

Reflection:

Do you show affection for God? Have you ever thought to send a kiss to Jesus or Our Lady like a child would?
