Father, we know each day has a purpose You will in our lives. On the days it is hard for us to stand up against all of the calamity and chaos in the world flying at our faces, help us to seek You and find You in moments of calm and clarity. Let Your peace reign our hearts, minds, and actions. Let Your Holy Spirit fall over us in a calm sense of purpose, yet renewed vigor to follow Jesus with more determination each day we live. Amen

I've previously posted another song by the O'Neal Twins. This one is "Lord, Help Me Stay Prayed Up." It's an energetic number. Everyone knows the concept of being "caught up" with work, the laundry, the bills, etc., and I like the idea that the concept can be applied to prayer.

Today’s Collect really gets to the heart of the matter. “O God, protector of those who hope in you . . . bestow in abundance your mercy upon us and grant that, with you as our ruler and guide, we may use the good things that pass in such a way as to hold fast even now to those that ever endure . . .” With these words, we pray that we might pass through this world without losing sight of the eternal realm. In other words, we pray to live out our earthly lives without forgetting the truths of eternal life—those things that always have been and will be forever. We were not created to begrudgingly trudge through life, motivated solely by the promise of a heavenly reward rather, we pray to remember things eternal because they can give us much-needed perspective in this life. Eternal things—the things of God and of Jesus, of the religious and the spiritual—remind us that the lives we live day to day, week to week, and year to year are but the blink of an eye in the sight of the one who is everlasting to everlasting. One of the virtues of such an eternal perspective is that it keeps us aware of the fact that God is God, and we are not; that God’s ways are not our ways; that there just might be a different way to respond to present circumstances or envision future possibilities than the way we typically do. So, when we pray that we may use the good things that pass in such a way as to hold fast even now to those that ever endure . . .” , we are asking God to keep us mindful of the very thing God did—and still does—in Jesus Christ. That is, God enters this world, sanctifies it, and reminds us that the ways of this world won’t get the last word. We need a reminder of that through any and all of the messiness of day-to-day living, our relationship with Jesus makes it possible for us to see things from an eternal perspective now; to glimpse the Kingdom now; to walk in eternal life today. This is what God has always been doing: in the wisdom spoken through the prophets, in the Red Sea waters lifted at the hand of Moses, in the bow that Noah saw set in the clouds, in the sacred covenant made with Abraham, in the creation fashioned from a formless void. All of these things are signs that God has, since before time began, been showing us glimpses of eternity. It doesn’t only happen in dramatic ways. We can participate in eternal life by reading a bit of scripture, praying with the psalms, or naming God’s activity in the world around you. And don’t worry. Even when you lose sight of things eternal—as we all do from time to time—God will find a way to reach toward you in covenant loyalty, as if to say, “I am here, and I will never go away. No matter what you do, no matter what you say, I am in this.” You just have to remember God, is constantly calling you into eternal relationship even in this midst of this temporal world. That eternal relationship is not a testament to something old or new, but to the one thing that is constant: the faithfulness of a God who never ceases to work the wonders of eternity. And so, we pray to behold those very wonders by recounting not only God’s saving deeds long past but experiencing them today. Notice the parallels between today’s Gospel and First Reading. Both Elisha and Jesus face a crowd of hungry people with only a few “barley” loaves. We hear similar words about how impossible it will be to feed the crowd with so little. And in both, the miraculous multiplication of bread satisfies the hungry and leaves food left over. It’s so easy to say things like, “I could never buy enough food for all these people.” or “There’s a kid here with a couple loaves of bread, but I don’t know what good it’s going to do in a crowd this size.” But that kind of attitude isn’t going to help us see through a lens of eternity. We can do that only if we show up and faithfully start passing out what’s there. Once everyone’s had enough, we just might find that we are glimpsing the Kingdom of Heaven. Not only that, but we can make quite a nice meal from what’s left over.

Oh mon Jésus, pardonnes nous nos péchers, préserve-nous des feux de l'enfer, conduisez au ciel toutes les âmes, spécialement celles qui ont le polus besoin de Ta miséricorde. Amen Notre Père, qui est au cieux, Que Ton nom soit sanctifier, Que Ton règne vienne, Que Ta volonté soit faite, sur la terre comme au ciel. Donnes-nous aujourd'hui, notre pain de ce jours. Pardonnes-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi a ceux qui nous ont offensé. Ne nous soumets pas a la tentation, mais délivres-nous du mal. Amen

This is another men's Gospel group from Jackson, MS, The Williams Brothers. They're singing "Pray on, My Child." The Staples Singers also recorded this song - they do a more stripped down version than the Williams Brothers, who use more instruments and a back-up choir.

I'm not here to defend conservatism or the republican party. But to remind catholics that liberalism has been condemned repeatedly by the church and still stands under formal ban. There is no compatibility between liberalism and the democrat party and the catholic church. I'm not saying there is with conservatism and the republican party either I'm just saying liberalism and the democrat party are not the lesser of two evils. Liberals may claim they help the poor and they are for social justice but there is 0 evidence of that. The actual proof shows they've done nothing but create more poor. In the church they are directly responsible for the ruination of the priesthood and have destroyed the beauty once created to glorify God. Being a liberal catholic is not okay.

The Jackson Southernaires are no relation to the Jackson Five. These guys are from Jackson, MS. They started recording in the 1960s. I've been posting songs about prayer this week, and "Prayer Changes Things" sticks with that theme. They have a very traditional Gospel sound.

Hmmm...that has me feeling sad. If I remember correctly, there was a phatmasser (passionheart) who had entered that community. I hope that she is at peace wherever she is now (I can't imagine that closing one location and moving to a new location, only to close the whole community just a few years later would be a peaceful experience for anyone). Thank you for letting us know--I'll pray for her and for all of the Sisters who were a part of the Buffalo Dominicans in a special way today.

Sr. Mary Agnes, OP, formerly of the Buffalo monastery and currently of the Summit monastery, posted a reflection on her 70th anniversary of religious vows. It includes this paragraph: "Then a major change came into the life of our Buffalo Monastery. Due to the fact that our neighborhood was becoming unsafe, after much prayer and discussion about that and other important matters, we decided to move on June 15, 2020. History holds in its memories why the community had to close a few years later. That is why I transferred to the Dominican Nuns Monastery in Summit, New Jersey, arriving on December 1, 2022. I chose this community because I surmised it had vitality in living Dominican monastic life. So, there I was at the age of 90, ready to begin a new adventurous phase of my life! I thank God for His Providence in leading me to this community where I have found that for which I was searching. In leaving Buffalo, I surely did not leave behind the cherished friendship of those whose lives I’ve touched. I remember them all in my daily prayers." That explains the move from Buffalo, but the reasons for the closing of the monastery after its move to Ohio is not clarified. For the full reflection, you can click on this link: https://summitdominicans.org/blog/2024/platinum-jubilee-of-sr-mary-agnes-op?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR3HaPwcDrOZ9jdlDrutiTkJ88XQ_TZLDrnO1Hv1gyWtpU0DhWy2rrgLKYs_aem_rPRAqtR_yYmxkOHR7haUmQ

Ira and Charlie Louvin were known professionally as The Louvin Brothers. They were from Tennessee, and they had a string of hits - both Gospel and pop - in the Fifties into the Sixties. Ira was a troubled soul - married four times, shot by one of his wives when he tried to strangle her with a telephone cord, hard drink, given to fits of anger, etc. But they had a very pure sound; Ira had an impossible high clear tenor voice, and Charlie sang what's called "close harmony" with him. This is "I Just Steal Away and Pray," which has been recorded by any number of other groups since it was originally issued - it's pretty much a standard in country Gospel these days.
