 take their inspiration and do something with it in our own lives. We too are called to be pillars of our local church. Jesus, help us, give us all the graces that we need, that we can be just as effective missionaries and just as effective preachers of your word as Peter and Paul. I give you thanks, my God, for the good resolutions, affections and inspirations that you have communicated to me during this meditation. I ask your help to put them into effect.
