Fifth Sunday of Lent -- The Attitude of Faith:
Unless we can presume that the Lord is speaking right now, how can we believe that he ever spoke? To have an attitude of faith is to hear the Lord speaking everywhere and all the time, in the concrete and ordinary experiences of our lives.
=====================================================================
Fix your minds on the passion of our Lord Jesus Christ. Inflamed with love for us, he came down from heaven to redeem us. For our sake he endured every torment of body and soul and shrank from no bodily pain. He himself gave us an example of perfect patience and love. We, then, are to be patient in adversity.
- St. Francis of Paola (1416-1507)
