Every morning, join Father Brad as he begins the day with prayer and reflection.

Let us do as the saints urge and begin our days in prayer together so as a community of believers we may join the Psalmist in saying, “In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.” (Psalm 5:3-4)

Thank you Father, if only people could realize what a blessing children are, please pray for all pregnant woman and those trying to get pregnant, may God bless all parents. It is a tough job but a very rewarding one.
Good morning Fr. Doyle, prayers for those that cannot conceive, especially our one daughter in law. By the grace of God they have been able to only have one child, a son. The loss of four other pregnancies has been so sad for us all. I pray that if God’s will permits they can have one more child. God bless you!
That was a neat lesson Father. A granddaughter who was born in December asked that her gifts be wrapped in birthday wrappings, not Christmas. Prayers for those who are trying to have a child especially those who suffer miscarriages.
“ Children too are a gift from the LORD,
the fruit of the womb, a reward.
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior
are the children born in one’s youth.
Blessed are they whose quivers are
full.
They will never be shamed
contending with foes at the gate.”
Psalm 127: 3- 5
The children can be whatever the Wisdom of God wills for each human being to have either, biological, spiritual, or adopted children.
The most important thing of all these, that the parents should seek always to raise their children in ‘ the Fear of the Lord’ in cooperation with His grace that come in the first place from home, from the holy sacraments of the church, and from His word in the holy Bible… all those blessed gifts can help the children “ to grow in grace and stature in front of God and people”.
The hardest thing is when you are struggling with infertility and KNOW that children are a blessing. It's also hard to live each day KNOWING it's a curse and not knowing why we are going through it. May God give us who are infertile the grace and courage to go through this curse of a journey with strength and peace in our hearts 🙏
This currently is in my prayers daily, and to accept it as God's will. Very hard a family member is currently in this situation. I pray every day for God's blessings. Thank you, Father Brad.
Please pray for my niece who is pregnant in her 30s. She has a son who is 13. I pray for the unborn all year time and for the end of abortion. Let them live ❤
Amen 💓 🙏
Amen , Fr. , Amen
Excellent!
Wonderful reflection Fr Brad one of my daughters was born on the 23rd and we always try to make it special for her. Children are a miracle and a blessing❤ Have great day!
Ok, this is hysterical...when the video first started, I said to myself "ooo it looks like Fr. Brad needs another haircut" & then you started talking about his hair😂 And PRAY TO END ABORTION ❤ God bless all here❣
Thank you, Fr. Brad, for this amazing reflection! 🤲🏻🙏🏻🙌🏻🕯🩷🕊
Thank you for this profound reflection. Really makes you rethink things. God bless you.
We once thought our infertility was a curse. It was not. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone, but… God has a better plan. Today, we have 10 children foster/adopted. God’s Plans are as high as the Heavens!
God bless you and your beautiful family!! Thank you so much for sharing that with us! 🙏☺️

You bring so much knowledge and understanding! I learn something knew everyday about our beautiful Catholic faith. Bless you🙏
Great information these last few days of Advent! Thanks!
Good morning, Fr. Brad
Thank you Fr Brad 🙏💜
I think he’s saying that some people view fertility as a “choice” that they can manipulate; that is, when they want to get pregnant or not. But it’s God will.
The church teaches "manipulation of fertility" at Pre-Cana so maybe look into that.
Does her name mean anything?
I love your morning offerings father. But to say that fertility is seen as a curse today is rather hyperbolic, wouldn't you say?
