When it comes to home improvement projects, I follow an ironclad philosophy: If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Today’s find: Essential equipment
Golf may perhaps be more than a game – at least in the case of my weak-willed spirit.
For golf, it seems, has a way of teaching me about certain spiritual defects, such as vanity.

Today’s find: Born from above
Just about this time every year, I find myself reflecting on the fact that I have something of a soul brother in Nicodemus.

Today’s find: Stuck
We transplanted some Resurrection Lilies last week, just in time for Easter.
Suffice it to say, it’s not going well.

Today’s find: Ardent silence
Unsettling, isn’t it, to recall how “pandemic” took “pan de vida” away from most of us last year…

Today’s find: Haunted
“It was night,” writes the Evangelist in the gospel passage we hear on Tuesday of Holy Week.
I am haunted by that night.

Today’s find: Solemnity
As Roman Catholics around the world celebrate the great feast of the Annunciation today, I am reminded of the visit we made on pilgrimage to the Church of the Annunciation in Nazareth two years ago…
Here’s a link to some reflections and photos I posted at that time:
And I am moved, also, today…to pray for the Christians who now live in Nazareth, and in all areas of the world where it is difficult to BE a Christian — on a feast day, or any other day of the week.
Let us remember that we are in the presence of the Holy & Merciful One.

The COVID vaccine tends to make beggars of us all – at least in my state of residence, and in my age-bracket.

Good News for Lent…or any season of the year!
