Salt and Light PRINTS OF GRACE - May 11, 2013 I enjoyed this detailed explanation and reflection on the Ten Commandments as the foundation of the faith and the Beatitudes as the crowning moral pillars that lead us towards the love of God. The writing is interesting as well as accessible. As someone who has studied and read a fair amount about God's Top Ten, I still found new, refreshing insights into these basic requirements for living in the Lord's love. The reasons why these guidelines are important ...http://printsofgrace.blogspot.com/2013/05/salt-and-light.html
On Spontaneity and Purity of Heart MAKING ALL THINGS NEW - May 5, 2013 ... theological reflection. We are offered here not simply the fact of a divine healing, but the deeper meaning of Jesus' giving sight to the blind. For our point of departure, let us look at the first few verses. Jesus and his disciples came upon the blind man, and immediately the disciples began their own theological reflection: "Who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" It was commonly assumed that physical infirmities were a punishment for ...http://wordincarnate.wordpress.com/2013/05/05/on-spontaneity-and-purity-of-heart/

This Little Light of Mine: Living the Beatitudes MESSY WIFE, BLESSED LIFE - April 17, 2013 When author Kathleen Basi sent me a copy of This Little Light of Mine: Living the Beatitudes to review, I had no idea that it would move me to tears. A resource for parents to help guide their families (and themselves) into deeper Christian living through examination of the beatitudes, I thought it would be a light "how-to" type read. While it does include practical ideas for daily application, I found the short chapter reflections delve much deeper ...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/CatholicNewlywed/~3/59Ddv3KFXxI/this-little-light-of-mine-living.html

Update on My Lenten Writing Journey WINDOWS TO THE SOUL BLOG - February 27, 2013 ... drafts, but each chapter of this book on the Eucharist actually needs a series of rewrites, with each draft focusing on a different aspect: theological, accessible, logical development, pastoral, and practical for use in prayer. Each chapter feels like a puzzle that takes constant mulling and several rewrites to put the pieces together. As I go through the day, the chapter I'm working on is never far from my mind. I'm a little over half-way through the rewrite (with only a proofread left for ...http://windowstothesoul.wordpress.com/2013/02/27/update-on-my-lenten-writing-journey/

Matthew 5:20-26: Today's Scriptures USCCB Video Reflection Saints of the Day Ezekiel is a fascinating prophet who puts his message into actions which are like living parables. Today, however, he gives us a new look from the prior one that often put the blame of someone's sickness or failures on the parents. We see that even in the time of Jesus the apostles ask Jesus about the blind man who ...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Catholicmomcom/~3/hcVJaLr1K44/

Living the Beatitudes CATHOLICMOM.COM - February 15, 2013 I didn't intend to read Living the Beatitudes: A Journey to Life in Christ , by J. Brian Bransfield (Pauline Books & Media, 2011), but in another devotional, I came across the Beatitudes. There was a question for reflection along the lines of, "Am I taking time to really reflect on and live the Beatitudes? How can I do it more deeply?" This book came to mind, and it was as wonderful a journey as I thought it would ...http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Catholicmomcom/~3/e4jhGmwkGM0/

And, nevertheless, how impressive are its words! It is, above all else, an explosion of joy. The things of God proceed from joy and end in enthusiasm. God comes to fill, not to empty. But that joy is not human. It comes from God and ends in God. Mary's joy is not of this world.
