In Matthew Kelly's talk, "The Seven Pillars of Catholic Spirituality" he suggests taking ONE thing from father's homily on Sunday and to write it down in a journal. He says after one year of going to mass you will have an amazing guide to spirtuality.
So, I'm going to post my ONE thing I took from father's homily every time I go to mass and post it here. I was going to start last week but things got crazy so you get a two for one.
Last week, we had a substitute priest. It one the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God. The ONE thing I took was, "God calls us to peace in the midst of chaos."
Yesterday--the Epiphany---we went to 6:30 mass at St. Andrews and the ONE thing I took was, "If we are truly living out our Catholic identity then we should expect to be a little weird."

Well, as long as YOU are expecting to be a "little" weird, you should be able to meet that regularly. LOL :)
ReplyDeleteI've never thought of doing something like that, but it's a great idea!
ReplyDeleteFr. Cory linked to your blog on Google Plus, and I'm so glad he did. I'm going to start doing this, too. I'll have to drop by again to compare notes.
