What a rich treasure we are given today in three parables about the kingdom of Saints and Special Observances heaven! The kingdom is likened to a man sowing good seed in his field, a Sunday: Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary mustard seed, and yeast mixed with flour. As they did last week, today the Time disciples press Jesus for an interpretation of one of the parables—the para- Monday: St. Apollinaris ble of the man sowing good seed. Lest we think that these parables are Tuesday: St. Lawrence of Brindisi simply amusing little anecdotes, Jesus’ interpretation should be seen for Wednesday: St. Mary Magdalene what it is—a warning. Wailing and grinding of teeth in a fiery furnace Thursday: St. Bridget await those who are children of the evil one. This parable points to the Friday: St. Sharbel Makhlūf struggle for today’s believer. Sometimes, through sin, we sow weeds and Saturday: St. James prevent the love of Christ from blossoming. Let today’s Gospel help put us back on track. Let us recommit ourselves to preparing for the last days, the harvest, by blossoming as the good seeds we were created in love to be. Copyright © J. S.

Chicago, 1991 DIFFERENT ELEMENTS IN THE OFFICES: Historical Notes 25. In accord with the General Instruction of the Liturgy of the Hours a short biographical note has been placed at the beginning of the proper Office of each Saint or Blessed. As is the case for some Propers of certain religious families and dioceses, these short biographical notices were written in a fuller manner and edited according to contemporary historico-critical findings by the office of the Postulator General of the Order." Thus, the desire of many has been satisfied, namely, the desire for spiritual nourishment, not only from the second readings of the Office of Readings, but also from the biographical note which describes the unique characteristics of the spiritual life, the teaching, or the pastoral activity of the Saint or Blessed. These notes can serve as an initial introduction to the Saint or Blessed or as a homiletic aid, as well as a source for personal meditation. General Introduction, p. xxxiv.

  • Dwells Within My Soul
    IMPRINT A PUBLICATION OF THE SISTERS OF LIFE / WINTER 2020 ISSUE god dwells within my soul He wants to dwell not just in the world, but in your soul. In Baptism, the fire of God comes to dwell within you. E GOD ENTERS IN FEAR NOT, for I am with you. (Is 43:5) From the beginning of time, God has been pur- suing human hearts with His love, and revealing Himself as the God who is with us. Over and over again He spoke to His chosen people, reassuring and encouraging them: “Fear not, for I am with you” (Is 43:5); “Do not be anxious: I am your God. I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold The World’s Best Kept Secret you with My victorious right hand” (Is 41:10); “Do not fear nor be dismayed, for the Lord, your God, is with you wherever you go” (Jos 1:9). In Jesus, God took on our human flesh to tell us, “I am with you” in an unparalleled and astound- ing way. God became man. Who would dream of asking for anything greater? Yet, God offers us even more. The Incarnation, the ultimate “being with”, wasn’t enough for Him; He wants to dwell not just in the world, but in our souls. He longs to unite Himself to every human person. At your Baptism, the living God came to dwell in your heart, to fill it with the Love you have been searching for from the moment you came to be. Jesus prayed, “Father, they are Your gift to Me.
