Last month we at Teaching Catholic Kids shared ways that you can help your students launch into the study and reflection of St. Paul. But what about you? You need to step aside, focus on your own spirituality, and immerse yourself in Paul.

Let’s do that right now…

Prayer

Dear Lord Jesus, when You came, You said You were the Light. You said Your words would give us new light to see by. Your words are in the Bible. Show me how important the Bible is, Jesus. Give me the desire to have a Bible, to keep one in my room, to open it every day and read just a little. I want to see and understand with this new light, Your light.
