Blog suspended until Wed 30 July.

I will be taking some time off, including time off the computer. May God bless and keep all of us. Meanwhile, below is a prayer attributed to Mary of Jesus Crucified (Mariam Bouardy, the Little Arab).

'Holy Spirit, inspire me.

Love of God, consume me.

Along the true road lead me.

Mary, my mother, look upon me.

With Jesus bless me.

From all evil, from all illusion,

from all danger, preserve me.'
