A. OPENING SONG

Father I Adore You

By Terry Coelho

Father, I adore You.
Lay my life before You.
How I love You.

Jesus, I adore You.
Lay my life before You.
How I love You.

Spirit, I adore You.
Lay my life before You.
How I love You.

B. SCRIPTURAL READING

(Gen. 1, 1-9)

In the beginning, when God created the Heavens and the earth, the earth was a formless wasteland and darkness covered the abyss, while the mighty wind swept over the waters.

Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. God saw how good the light was. God then separated the light from the darkness. God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” Thus evening came, and the morning followed – the first day.

Then God said: “Let there be a dome in the middle of the waters, to separate one body of water from another.” And so it happened: God made the dome, and it separated the water above the dome from the water below it. God called the dome “the sky.” Evening came, and morning followed – the second day.

Then God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered into a single basin, so that the dry land may appear.” And so it happened: the water under the sky was gathered into a basin, and the land appeared.

C. MEDITATION

“And so the whole universe was completed. By the seventh day, God finished what He had been doing and stopped working. He blessed the seventh day and set it apart as special, because by that day He had completed His creation and stopped working and that is how the universe was created.” (Gen. 2, 1-4)

The Father had completed the work of creation including the creation of Adam and Eve who disobeyed God.

D. PRAYER

Moses said: “The Lord, the lord, a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger and rich in kindness and fidelity, continuing His kindness for a thousand generation, and forgiving wickedness and crime and sin; yet not declaring the guilty, guiltless, but punishing children and grandchildren to the third and fourth generation for their fathers’ wickedness!” (Ex. 34, 6-7)

(Taught by the Angel of God to the three children at Fatima)

O my God, I believe, I adore, I hope, I love Thee!
I ask pardon for those who do not believe, nor adore, nor hope, nor love Thee.
O Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit,

Present in all the Tabernacles of the world,
for the outrages, sacrileges, and indifference committed against Thee
in which He Himself is offended. Amen.
