“And I thy handmaid knowing this, am fled from them, and the Lord hath sent me to tell thee these very things.”
Reflection for Today
Today's Catholic verse of the day is Judith 11:13: “And I thy handmaid knowing this, am fled from them, and the Lord hath sent me to tell thee these very things.”
Judith, received in the Catholic canon, shows courage, fidelity, and providence when God's people are tested. A single verse can meet us differently depending on the season we are in: grief, gratitude, fatigue, or new beginnings.
God often changes us less by thunder and more by a line of Scripture that will not leave us alone. Write one sentence of response in a notebook or phone note: what you hear God asking, promising, or healing. Then do one small act that matches that sentence.
Prayer
Holy Trinity, I receive today's verse with the Church. Keep Judith 11:13 close to me. Let “And I thy handmaid knowing this, am fled from them, and the Lord hath sent me to…” guard my thoughts from morning until night, and let my life quietly agree with Your word. Amen.
