Welcome to our daily rosary meditation. Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Amen. Let's call to mind all those we've promised to pray for.

Today is the Feast of Saint Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Jesuits. Now, do you remember when David had

Bashiba's husband, Uriah murdered so that he could marry her? The Lord then sent the Prophet Nathan to

condemn David for his behavior and Nathan was very clever. He didn't just come out and accuse David. Surely if he had,

David would have thrown up all kinds of justifications and rationalizations

because David had no objectivity when it came to his own

situation. So instead Nathan presented David with a fictional scenario, a scenario about a rich man with plenty of sheep who instead stole the little pet lamb of a poor man and slaughtered and ate it.

David had an objective perspective on that story, and he was outraged.

He said the man who had done it deserved to die and then Nathan said but that's

exactly what you did and instantly David could see his sin clearly and he was overcome with regret.

This is what we have to do. We have to escape from our own biased self-defensive mindsets and look at what we're doing

objectively. But how can we do that?

Our Father who art in heaven, hallow would be your name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us to stay 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. Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou among women,

blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for a and is noun in the hour of our death,
