I managed to find a pen and a piece of paper in my messy purse to jot down a few words from Deacon Marc's homily at mass yesterday and I'm glad I did because I have a terrible memory and would have forgotten it all by the time I got home.
"Lent is a time to go into the wilderness like a pilgrim people in an alien land"
"Without the mercies and Grace of God poured out by Him where would we be? Without God's mercy, without God's love we are nothing. "
" In the Weeks Ahead Let Us Remember His Mercies."
Hosea- Come Back to Me
from the Monks of the Weston Priory
from the Monks of the Weston Priory
Trees do bend, though straight and tall; so must we to others' call.
Refrain:
Long have I waited
For your coming home to Me
And living deeply our new life.
2...The wilderness will lead you to your heart where I will speak.
Integrity and justice with tenderness you shall know.
3....You shall sleep secure with peace; faithfulness will be your joy.
