Ep. 12 | 1st and 2nd Commandments

Theology on Tape

We discuss the first two commandments, and how honoring them is loving God both in thought and in word.

1. I am the Lord thy God, thou shalt not have any strange gods before Me.

2. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.

Opening Prayer from a Novena to St. Therese

Dearest Saint Therese of Lisieux, you said that you would spend your time in heaven doing good on earth.

Pray for me that I, like you, may have great and innocent confidence in the loving promises of our God.

Pray that I may live my life in union with God’s plan for me, and one day see the Face of God whom you loved so deeply.

Saint Therese, you were faithful to God even unto the moment of your death.

Pray for me that I may be faithful to our loving God. May my life bring peace and love to the world through faithful endurance in love for God our savior.

Loving God, you blessed St. Therese with a capacity for a great love. Help me to believe in your unconditional love for each of your children, especially for me. I love you, Lord. Help me to love you more!

Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.

Amen.
