Homecoming of the King SUFFERING WITH JOY - May 15, 2013 ... time and space in order to enter an unknown dimension, where God is said to dwell? There is a strong tendency in the men and women of our age to keep everything here below, to want to find Heaven on earth in the present moment, rather than longing for a distant world "over the rainbow". In his analysis of the errors of Modernism, Saint Pius X referred to this tendency as "immanentism", from the Latin meaning to "remain in". The fact is that ...http://www.sufferingwithjoy.com/2013/05/15/homecoming-of-the-king/
Wed. Sixth Week of Easter IS MY PHYLACTERY SHOWING? - May 9, 2013 ... the cuff yesterday at sung vespers with the chancel choir (mostly boys between the ages of 7 and 15). Actually, I can only approximate what I said because I went in only with my personal reflections on the readings and no notes. Acts 17:15, 22—18:1 John 16:12–15 =========================== In the reading from Acts, Paul is talking to the Athenians, and he recognizes that they are a pretty sophisticated bunch. They had a lot of great ...http://theocoid.blogspot.com/2013/05/wed-sixth-week-of-easter.html
How to Choose a Wedding Reading CATHOLIC SENSIBILITY - May 7, 2013 We fielded an apt question from a commenter yesterday about choosing the right reading for a wedding. It is very heartening to see engaged people take the selection of wedding Scripture seriously. This is a topic that I find difficult to handle in a general way. So much depends on the personality and faith of the couple. I want to commend and recommend my friend and fellow blogger, Father Austin Fleming , for his fine contribution to ministry to ...http://catholicsensibility.wordpress.com/2013/05/07/how-to-choose-a-wedding-reading/
Absolutely Incredible CATHOLIC WORKING MOM - May 6, 2013 If you didn't read my reflection on the gospel yesterday, do me a favor and read that first. It's not long or complicated. Without that background, you would miss the significance of this post. I just left the adoration chapel – pouring my heart out to Jesus – and giving Him my troubles – for the second time today:) On my way back to my classroom, I stopped to pick up a piece of trash on campus. It was a post it note – when I turned ...http://danardoyle.wordpress.com/2013/05/06/absolutely-incredible/

Wednesday, 17 Apr – Resurrection OXYGEN - April 16, 2013 ... over the last few months. He was literally skin and bones. I found myself wondering if this was indeed how everyone would remember him. Reflecting on John's gospel, I would like to think that when all of us are raised up on the last day, we will 'recognize' each other with our own eyes and it will be based on the most loving memory of that person for we will be '..like the angels in heaven.' (Mt 22:30b). I am sure we have all had to deal with death at some point in our lives. ...http://thecatholicwriter.com/oxygen/2013/04/wednesday-17-apr-resurrection/
Jesus Appears to His Disciples CREO EN DIOS! - April 11, 2013 Yesterday was the final Mid-Day Reflection of the 2012-13 academic year and the theme was Jesus' post resurrection appearances. AsI've written before, we don't tend to put as much energy into celebrating the Easter season as we do getting ready for Easter. I often say Catholics are great at Lent and the Triduum liturgies, but then we go to Easter Mass, have a big family dinner and act like we're done. I suspect the same if true for many other Christians. For that reason, ...http://susanjoan.wordpress.com/2013/04/11/jesus-appears-to-his-disciples/

Being Comes First TEN THOUSAND PLACES - April 9, 2013 Christ's insistence on the power of children is very striking. Almost more than anything else in the Gospel it proves that in God's eyes being something comes before doing something. He sets a little child among his apostles as an example of what he loves. He says that heaven is full of children. Indeed, the Architect of Love has built the door into heaven so low that no one but a small child can pass through it, unless, to ...http://frdenis.blogspot.com/2013/04/being-comes-first.html
Holy Week REFLECTIONS OF AN RSCJ - March 26, 2013 This is a picture of Judas leaving the supper and going out to arrange the betrayal of Jesus by one of His chosen friends. The Gospel of John read in today's Liturgy tells us that "Jesus was deeply troubled and testified, "Amen, amen, I say to you, one of you will betray me."

Lombardi added that the Mass was the second of its kind; yesterday, Francis celebrated his morning Eucharist with the employees of the Domus.

Francis began his first day as pontiff making an early morning visit in a simple Vatican car to a Roman basilica dedicated to the Virgin Mary and prayed before an icon of the Madonna. He had told a crowd of about 100,000 people packed in rain-soaked St. Peter's Square after his election that he intended to pray to the Madonna "that she may watch over all of Rome".

Probably half of us are in our old age. Old age, they say, is the seat of wisdom. The old ones have the wisdom that they have earned from walking through life. Like old Simeon and Anna at the temple whose wisdom allowed them to recognize Jesus.
