Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe
Christ is
king of the cosmos
over which He has
all power,
authority and
dominion.
The catechism instructs that in Christ,
“human history, and indeed all creation
are ‘set forth’ and transcendently fulfilled.” (668) The feast of Our Lord Jesus
Christ, King of the Universe, marks the
Church’s celebration of Christ’s triumph.
As faithful disciples, we can rest assured
that with him, in him and through him we
have a share in his triumph and his glory.
November 22, 2015
Gracious and loving God,
as the autumn season continues its transformation;
and the days become shorter, the earth cooler;
as we anticipate joining family and friends in joyful celebration
on Thanksgiving Day, we pause to give You thanks and praise
for the abundant blessings You have bestowed upon us:
For life and health, safety and comfort, food and nourishment,
we are sincerely grateful. Through your Spirit, open our hearts
so that we may be even better stewards of these rich and unmerited gifts.
Show us how to be a blessing for the poor, sick, lonely and all who suffer.
And help us nurture the gift of faith, revealed to
us by your Son, Jesus Christ, our greatest gift,
who reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one
God forever and ever. Amen.
As we celebrate the feast of Christ the King today and look forward to
the beginning of Advent next weekend, it seems like a good time to
pause and reflect on all the gifts we receive each day through the
goodness of Christ our King. These are some words of thanksgiving
taken from our Book of Gratitude in the Church.
“I give thanks to
Jesus for His
love for me and
my family and
for delivering us
safely through
many trials.”
“I give thanks
to Jesus for
everything—
the good and
the
hardships.”
“I give thanks to
Jesus for the
parents who gave
me life even
though they are
no longer with
me. May they rest
in peace.”
“I give
thanks to
Jesus for
letting me
help
others.”
“I give thanks to
Jesus for always
keeping us
under His
protection and
for unseen
blessings.”
“I give thanks
to Jesus for
blessing me
even when I
am so faulty.”
“I give thanks to
Jesus for His
mercy that is
always with me
even in the times
that I feel like I’m
walking alone.”
“I give thanks to
Jesus for my faith,
family and education. And for a
house to live in
and for all my
blessings.”
“I give thanks
to Jesus for the
Church and my
family.”
“I give thanks
to Jesus for
making
St. Didacus
my home!”
“I give thanks
to Jesus for the
Men’s Prayer
Group.”
“I give
thanks to
Jesus for
dying for
my sins.”
