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.
The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister
