Great readings and music

Every now and then, the readings, homily, and music from Mass combine in a way that results in Jesus meeting me right where I am. Today was one of those days, as we sang of longing for the Lord and knowing He will find us, and of responding to His call for our lives. The Lord delivers us from the hopelessness of a mud-filled cistern, and provides for what we need.

Fr. Vincent shared that Jesus is our Victor, and I was immediately reminded that the nature of that victory is sacrificial. So must it be for us. The greatest expression of our love is always the laying down of our lives for our beloved.
