“Into your hands, O Lord, I commend my spirit.”
April 21, 2026
Dear Family of Mary,
Here is the Responsorial Psalm to today’s Mass. I feel that it is important for us to really put our lives into the hands of the Lord!! Let’s pray it together!!
R. Into your hands, O Lord, I commend my spirit.
Be my rock of refuge,
a stronghold to give me safety.
You are my rock and my fortress;
for your name’s sake you will lead and guide me. R/
Into your hands I commend my spirit;
you will redeem me, O Lord, O faithful God.
My trust is in the Lord;
I will rejoice and be glad of your mercy. R/
Let your face shine upon your servant;
save me in your kindness.
You hide them in the shelter of your presence
from the plottings of men. R/
We are the children of God. He alone can save us and set us free. He alone can lead us on the way of righteousness and give us eternal peace and joy. Our Lady calls us in her messages to live in a total and complete relationship of love with the Lord. Here is a wonderful message in which she calls us to a deep relationship of love and trust in Jesus:
December 25, 2017 – Jakov
“Dear children,
today, on this day of grace,
I am calling you to ask the Lord
for the gift of faith.
My children, decide for God
and begin to live and to believe
in that to which God is calling you.
To believe, my children, means
to surrender your lives into God’s hands –
the hands of the Lord who created you
and who loves you immeasurably.
Do not be believers only in words
but live and witness your faith through works
and through your personal example.
Speak with God as with your Father.
Open and surrender your hearts to Him
and you will see how your hearts are changing
and you will marvel at God’s works in your life.
My children, there is no life without God
and that is why, as your mother,
I intercede before, and pray to, my Son
to renew your hearts
and to fill your life with immeasurable love.
Thank you for having responded to my call.”
And so we pray:
“Into your hands I commend my spirit;
you will redeem me, O Lord, O faithful God.
My trust is in the Lord;
I will rejoice and be glad of your mercy.”
Thank you, dearest Mother, for leading us into the arms of your Son!! Amen!
