Revitalization: to impart new life or vigor…to restore to a fresh condition. What if this word became a sacred image for us as a community? No question: we worry about our future, the immediate future of our individual lives and the life of our community. Such ‘worry’ is part of our humanity and there is nothing wrong with it.
The Lord is exalted, yet the lowly he sees, and the proud he knows from afar.

These words from St Paul's Letter to the Philippians proclaimed this morning at Lauds I find most comforting and encouraging:
Birth is a miracle. Death is mystery. Our lives move between these two realities, realities that are immersed in God, that point to our spiritual journey through, with and in the Divine Life and Mystery.
Taste and see the goodness of the Lord.
Saint John Fisher (1469-1535); Saint Thomas More (1477-1535); Saint Paulinus of Nola (355-431)
