One aspect of the recent retranslation of the Mass into English was to provide memorable and worthy versions of the original Latin collects and so forth.

Z, in his excellent blog, "What Does that Prayer Really Say", relates with filial joy (an expression that I wholeheartedly share) that the Bishop of the Diocese of Madison (Wisconsin), the Most Rev. Robert Morlino, is actively promoting the posture of ad orientem for priests celebrating the Mass in his territory. ...http://benedictgal-lexorandilexcredendi.blogspot.com/2013/02/orienting-ourselves-during-year-of.html

Rahner goes so far as to say that loneliness, disappointments, and the ingratitude of others can be graced moments because they open to the transcendent. The silence of God, the toughness of life, and the darkness of death can be graced events. This mystery of grace discloses itself as a forgiving nearness, a hidden closeness, our real home, a love which shares itself, something familiar which we can turn to from ...http://predmore.blogspot.com/2013/02/prayer-traditions-of-spiritual-guidance.html
