... a reflection on today's Sacred Scripture: A colored egg peeked ... CLICKITYCLICK - April 17, 2013 ... a reflection on today's Sacred Scripture: A colored egg peeked out from its hiding place under a snow-covered shrub and caught my eye today. I wondered how long it would take for someone to find the undiscovered Easter treasure. What undiscovered treasure did we leave behind this Easter? One can easily be found in today's Gospel, where John teaches us to observe something more. What more could there be than Christ's glorious resurrection?

A Reflection on Last Night With the Cardinal GW CATHOLIC Q & A - April 15, 2013 ... my sheep." Peter's successors have been feeding Jesus' sheep for two thousand years, a responsibility in which the shepherds of dioceses and priests such as Father Greg participate. And what, he asked, does the Church feed Christ's sheep? The Word of God and the Sacraments of the Church, especially the Eucharist (cf. Dei Verbum 21 ). The Word of God has always included what are for some "hard truths," Wuerl observed. Christ's words about the Eucharist were considered a "hard truth" by the ...http://gwcatholicforum.blogspot.com/2013/04/a-reflection-on-last-night-with-cardinal.html

Reflection on the Readings for Sunday, April 14, 2013 CATHOLIC WORKING MOM - April 14, 2013 Readings for Sunday, April 14, 2013 We are witnesses of these things, as is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him." The Sanhedrin ordered the apostles to stop speaking in the name of Jesus, and dismissed them. So they left the presence of the Sanhedrin, rejoicing that they had been found worthy to suffer dishonor for the sake of the name. In the first reading from Acts, these are the lines that struck me most. It amazes me how filled with the Holy ...http://danardoyle.wordpress.com/2013/04/14/reflection-on-the-readings-for-sunday-april-14-2013/
Third Sunday of Easter PRINTED AS PREACHED - April 14, 2013 The pages of the Gospel are offered to us, not simply for insight into human nature. Using the language of symbols and sacred imagery, the Gospel provides us with a powerful reflection on the essence of Christ's holy Church, the direction the Church is going, and her mission. Remember! This is about us. This is about the family, our own family - a little "church". Through baptism, we have been baptized into a domestic family and ...http://printedaspreached.blogspot.com/2013/04/third-sunday-of-easter.html
Do You Love Me? JOURNEY TO WISDOM - April 14, 2013 A reflection on the John 21: 1-19 At that time, Jesus revealed himself again to his disciples at the Sea of Tiberias. He revealed himself in this way. Together were Simon Peter, Thomas called Didymus, Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, Zebedee's sons, and two other disciples. Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They said to him, "We also will come with you." So they went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing. When it was already dawn, Jesus ...http://journeytowisdom-ocbs.blogspot.com/2013/04/do-you-love-me.html

Guest Blogger – Jenna McCuin – Reflection on St. Paul's First Letter to the Corinthians TOM PERNA - April 12, 2013 ... by Jenna McCuin, proved to be superior - I chose to reflect upon Paul's First Letter to the Corinthians because what he was writing to Corinth can be applied to us in today's society. There were factions appearing in the Christian faith and people were identifying themselves with certain religious leaders, instead of with Christ Himself, and interpreting the Gospel according to their preferences and needs. In today's society, there are numerous sects of Christianity, and all ...http://tomperna.org/2013/04/12/guest-blogger-jenna-mccuin-reflection-on-st-pauls-first-letter-to-the-corinthians/
Christ: Always Found Where Least Expected QUIET, DIGNITY, AND GRACE - April 11, 2013 ... was no room in the inn, but there was room in the stable. The inn is the gathering place of public opinion, the focal point of the world's moods, the rendezvous of the worldly, the rallying place of the popular and the successful. But the stable is a place for the outcasts, the ignored, the forgotten. The world might have expected the Son of God to be born -- if He was to be born at all -- in an inn. A stable would be the last place in the world where one would have looked for Him. Divinity is ...http://lukearredondo.blogspot.com/2013/04/christ-always-found-where-least-expected.html

Preference for Darkness DEDICATED DISCIPLE - April 9, 2013 Today's Gospel Text : For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God sent the Son into the world, not to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him. 18 He who believes in him is not condemned; he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. 19 And this is the judgment, that the light has come into the ...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/DedicatedDisciple/~3/kORXAIEnJos/preference-for-darkness.html
Springtime and Pope Francis the Blue Wilderness A FRIAR'S LIFE - April 9, 2013 NOTE: Another beautiful reflection by Br. Joseph Powell, OFM, from his blog, The Blue Wilderness : Br. Joseph Powell, OFM Lent and Easter have left their share of impressive imagery, as they always do. Bare churches and mournful hymns now give way to lilies and gold-white vestments and thundering Alleluias. The wet March weather, with its cold mornings and overcast skies, has gone lamb-like away to make room for sunny April.

Third Sunday in Easter IGNATIAN SPIRITUALITY: SET THE WORLD ABLAZE - April 9, 2013 Third Sunday in Easter April 14, 2013 Acts 5:12-16; Psalm 118; Revelation 1:9-13, 17-19; John 20:19-31 This Gospel is fascinating for us because of the tiny details and the great significance of so many points in a relatively short passage. We wonder why the disciples, after having already experienced the Risen Lord in bodily form several times, cannot see any physical similarities to this man on the beach. Why does Jesus make it difficult for them to ...http://predmore.blogspot.com/2013/04/third-sunday-in-easter.html
Devotion for Today: "Through the Pierced Chest of the Crucified Christ, Divine Mercy Reaches Humanity" GRACE4U - April 8, 2013 For "Meditative Monday" today I have chosen a passage from Sunday's Gospel for our reflection, along with a wonderful commentary by Monsignor Francesco Follo. I think it clarifies the beauty of God's divine mercy. John 20:24-29 Now a week later his disciples were again inside and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, although the doors were locked, and stood in their midst and said, "Peace be with you." Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger ...http://sandy-grace4u.blogspot.com/2013/04/devotion-for-today-through-pierced.html

Divine Mercy Sunday Reflection THE SYROPHOENICIAN WOMAN - April 7, 2013 Divine Mercy Sunday was kind of a big deal at the Newman Center when I was in college. We'd have a blessing of the Divine Mercy image during Mass. Throughout the afternoon we'd have Confession and adoration. We would do the Divine Mercy Novena beforehand as long as we had school (Easter weekend was usually a three-day weekend). So, what is Divine Mercy? A saint and mystic named Faustina Kowalska wrote about her visions regarding God's mercy. Her main message was that God ...http://syrophoenicianwoman.blogspot.com/2013/04/divine-mercy-sunday-reflection.html

The Boldness of Christianity (Sunday Homily) BONFIRE OF THE VANITIES - April 6, 2013 The starting point for our reflection at Easter is the Resurrection. Jesus Christ rose from the dead "in the flesh." In the Gospel: our Lord showed them his hands and his side, and invited Thomas to touch them. So let's notice that this part of our Faith is put to us-- and to the world-- as not merely a theory or a point of view, but a fact. Which is to say, either it happened, or it didn't; there's no middle-ground. Either astronauts landed on the moon ...http://frmartinfox.blogspot.com/2013/04/the-boldness-of-christianity-sunday.html
