Isaiah  5:   The vineyard of the LORD of hosts is the house of Israel, and the people of Judah are his cherished plant; . . .
Philippians 4:   Brothers and sisters:  Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God.
Matthew 21:   Jesus said to them, “Did you never read in the Scriptures: The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; by the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes?

 

Life is not a burden to be bemoaned; it is an adventure to be trusted. As Shel Silverstein says: “Listen to the mustn’ts, child. Listen to the don’ts. Listen to the shouldn’ts, the impossibles, the won’ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me… Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.”
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister

Reminder for 14th Sunday Ordinary Time, July 5, 2020

Here are the links for Sunday:

Paris in the snow.

 

We, the People, recognize that we have responsibilities as well as rights; that our destinies are bound together; that a freedom which only asks what’s in it for me, a freedom without love or charity or duty or patriotism, is unworthy of our founding ideals, and those who died in their defense. 

Barack Obama

 

I Kings 3:  Give your servant, therefore, an understanding heart to judge your people and to distinguish right from wrong. For who is able to govern this vast people of yours?”
Romans 8:   Brothers and sisters: We know that all things work for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.
Matthew 13:   Jesus said to his disciples: “The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure buried in a field, which a person finds and hides again, and out of joy goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.

 

To forget to celebrate is to forget to imitate the God who created us and then relaxed and said, “That’s good.”
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister
