Critical Mass

Here’s just one of the many, many pictures that I took over the weekend.  I do not have a great zoom, and was sitting quite high in the stands, so the picture is a little fuzzy (digital zoom will do that).
It was amazing!  It was great!  I need a thesaurus for my superlative adjectives!
One day, […]

Well, it has certainly been a while since I posted any of my reflections from the Little White Book.  Have you guys missed my random musings?  :)
LWB, Saturday 4/5
Today, we talk about the apostles being in the boat in the Sea of Galilee as a storm is going on, and how in the midst of […]

Little White Book, Tuesday 4/1
Nicodemus asks Jesus about God, and Jesus answers him that the He is the only one who has seen the Father, and that if He has been preaching about things of this world and we do not understand, what sense does it make to preach of things of the life to […]

Little White Book, Monday 3/30
The Feast of the Annunciation
Of course, today we are discussing Mary’s “Yes” to God, and whether in our day-to-day routine we are saying “Yes” or “No” to God.  They point out that it’s usually not a direct “yes” or “no,” but rather a failure to take God into account in our […]

Little White Book, Saturday 3/30
(Yep, I’m a day behind.  I’ll try to catch up.)
This reading is mainly directed at getting us to think about the immense magnitude of an infinite God, and what that might mean to us.  Then it tells us that, “Faith is nothing more and nothing less than accepting my connection with […]

Little White Book, Saturday 3/29
Today’s Gospel (Mark 16:9-15) tells us of how the faithful disciples of Jesus were hesitant to believe in the Resurrection until confronted with hard evidence.  The reflection in the LWB talks of the context of Mark’s writing, being that the Christians had just gone through torture and persecution under Nero.  It […]

Little White Book, Friday 3/28
Reflection on the Gospel of the day:  John 21:1-14.  ”Jesus constantly reaches out to me, extends his graced love to me.  He wants only to care for me, help me, heal me, forgive me.  There are times when I especially need to be cared for.  By Jesus.”
How true is that!  Yesterday was […]

Little White Book, Thursday 3/27
“We all have wounds — from broken relationships, injuries, setbacks, crime, tragedies.  Perhaps some wounds were the result of our own mistakes.  Some may still be bleeding.”
“…the Lord uses the dissonance of my wounds to create something beautiful within me.”
 Today, I am particularly having some problems with my “scar tissue.”  Especially […]

Little White Book, Wednesday 3/26
Okay, for whatever reason, I have noticed that most parishes close down to a degree right after Easter and Christmas.  What this means for me (egomaniac that I am) — I don’t get to go to Mass at 6:30 a.m. before work.  Certainly, I do the readings, and, of course, I […]
