Get into the ring! How this works...

This is easy! Each week on Thursday I post my homily idea...my main focus for preaching this coming Sunday. What I am hoping for is a reaction from people in the pews. Does my "focus" connect with your daily life, faith, and experience? Or not? Either affirm the direction I am going in (by giving me an example from your life) or challenge me, ask for clarification! Questions are the best! Reaction rather than reflection is what I'm looking for here. Don't be afraid, get in the ring. Ole!

Symptoms of faith in Resurrection!

Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, generosity, goodness, faithfulness, modesty, self-control and chastity.  The fruits of the Spirit (CCC).  In the face of pain, loss, persecution, hatred, death - these fruits are the symptoms o faith in the resurrection.

Do you manifest and faith in the resurrection?

A Holy Desire said...

Reading this reflection reminded me that after Fr. Viall was diagnosed with cancer in the last months of his life, he asked for prayers that he would live his final days out in a Christian way. What a holy desire! I am thinking that these fruits of the Holy Spirit would describe exactly what he meant. They certainly are "the symptoms of faith in the resurrection". Death where is your sting?
