January 28, 2018
In other years: St Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274)Readings of the day: RB 7:19-23Mass: Deuteronomy 18:15-20; Resp. Psalm 95; 1 Cor 7:32-35; Mark 1:21-28 St Thomas AquinasFor even if it is better to enlighten than merely to shine, soit is better to give to others the fruit of one’s contemplation than merely to contemplate.(St Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, II-II, q. 188, art. 6)
Taking the Angelic Doctor’s words to mind and heart, how might we give to others what we contemplate this day, that is, the Lord’s Day? May the WORD enlighten you!
