  • Reminder for the 26th Sunday in Ordinary Time, September 28, 2025

    Amos 6:  Woe to the complacent in Zion!  Lying upon beds of ivory, stretched comfortably on their couches, they eat lambs taken from the flock,  and calves from the stall!
    1 Timothy 6:  But you, man of God, pursue righteousness, devotion, faith, love, patience, and gentleness.
     Luke 16:  “There was a rich man who dressed in purple garments and fine linen and dined sumptuously each day.  And lying at his door was a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, who would gladly have eaten his fill of the scraps that fell from the rich man’s table.

     


    Nothing we manage to amass here can change the value of what we really are underneath it all. “Why, snatch at wealth, and hoard and stock it?” Betty Paoli writes. “Your shroud, you know, will have no pocket.”

    Isaiah 55:  Seek the LORD while he may be found, call him while he is near.
    Philippians 1:  Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.  For to me life is Christ, and death is gain.
    Matthew 20:  ‘My friend, I am not cheating you. Did you not agree with me for the usual daily wage? Take what is yours and go.  What if I wish to give this last one the same as you?  Or am I not free to do as I wish with my own money?  Are you envious because I am generous?’  Thus, the last will be first, and the first will be last.”

    I am sorry you did not get a Blog last Sunday but there was a software problem.

     


    Once upon a time, within the last 75 years, life was considered a question to be answered, a series of steps to be defined. Now we know that life is at best an invitation to begin and begin and begin—all over again. It’s when we cease to begin that we cease to be fully alive.
