God's Moral Messasge

" God’s moral message and standards are clear. We are to 'take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ ' (2 Cor. 10:5). 'Every thought we allow should be able to pass the examination proposed in Scripture. Is this thought, true, noble… right… pure… lovely… admirable… excellent… worthy? (cf Phil 4:8) + "'

I found this prayer which I like Prayer to the Apostle Paul Glorious St. Paul, Most zealous Apostle, Martyr for the love of Christ, Give us a deep faith, A steadfast hope, A burning love for our Lord; So that we can proclaim with you, “It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.” Help us to become apostles Serving the Church with a pure heart, Witnesses to her truth and beauty Amidst the darkness of our days. With you we praise God our Father: “To Him be the glory, in the Church and in Christ, now and forever.” Amen.
