SIRACH 35:20-22A
One whose service is pleasing to the Lord will be accepted,and his prayer will reach to the clouds.
The prayer of the humble pierces the clouds,
and it will not rest until it reaches its goal;
it will not desist until the Most High responds
and does justice to the righteous, and executes judgement.
---- mine,
Serve Me with joy. Serve Me humbly, promptly, and obediently. The service you offer Me when you serve a brother or sister in need is done to Me - keep this thought always before you and no task will seem too burdensome. Count it all joy, ---- my own, count it all joy and the peace that surpasses human understanding will always be yours and the word I have spoken to you today will be accomplished. All have to go through life enduring trials, suffering, and crosses but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.
