Sunday's Prayer

Almighty God, on this day you opened the way of eternal life to every race and nation by the promised gift of your Holy Spirit: Shed abroad this gift throughout the world by the preaching of the Gospel, that it may reach to the ends of the earth; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

In the same way the Church exists for nothing else but to draw men into Christ, to make them little Christs. If they are not doing that, all the cathedrals, clergy, missions, sermons, even the bible itself, are simply a waster of time. God became Man for no other purpose.

Yet, as our calendars get fuller and fuller, our souls grow emptier and emptier. The wisdom of Jesus is proven again: "What shall it profit a man, if he should gain the whole world (the electronic world included) but lose his own soul" (Mark 8:36). Our souls long for silence, inner peace, temporary disconnection from the technological in order to momentarily reconnect to the spiritual.

Thought for the Day

Two rabbis sere sitting in a park arguing about a passage of the Torah. They've been arguing about it for years and can never come to an agreement. God is so tired of their contending that finally God parts the sky, comes down and says, "You guys have been fighting for years. I'll tell you what the passage means." And in a rare moment of unity, the two rabbis turn to God and say, "What right have you to come down here and tell us what it means? Go away and let us argue."
