Deep in the heart of a forest is a hidden treasure called Mullanhassig Waterfall. It is about 5km west of Coachford.

Thought on Sunday – January – 09/01/2022

The following reflection is printed this week in the Millstreet Parish Newsletter


My life is a gift given, not in years, but a day at a time.
Today is the day the Lord has made for me,

and he planned it to be the most important day of my life.
Yesterday is gone, never to return.
I must not worry about it, but leave it in the hands of God.

Tomorrow and all it holds is God’s secret.
Only today is mine.
Each day, arranged by God with infinite wisdom and goodness is God’s gift.
It is God’s act of love for me.
In thanksgiving I will offer God every day the gift of myself,

my prayer, works, joys and sufferings.
Dear God, receive them graciously.
