Another Angel came and stood before the alter, with a golden censer....
...And with the prayers of the saints, the cloud of insense rose up before
God from the angel's hand.
-Rev 8:3-4
REFLECTION. The incomparable Mother of God is the purest golden
censer. In her our prayers are offered to the Eternal God.
-St. Ephrem
PRAYER. O Mary, you present our prayers to God without ceasing. Beg your Divine
Son to forgive me my sins so that I may offer prayers to Him forever in heaven.
