The internet, while a great blessing, also has its negative side-effects. It can be tempting to constantly look at social media or YouTube, taking us away from focusing on our family and friends.

Not only can it distract us from fulfilling our daily obligations, it can also distract us from God.

Here is a short prayer from the 19th-century devotional The Glories of the Catholic Church that asks for the Holy Spirit’s intercession to reduce distractions in your life.
