From today’s reading...
I have all that I need and more: I am fully provided, now that I have received from Epaphroditus the offering that you sent, a pleasing smell, the sacrifice which is acceptable and pleasing to God.” Philippians 4:18
Paul was in prison, yet he was happy, joy-filled, and had all that he needed because he had the love and support of his flock and the pleasing sacrifice of the Eucharist.
That’s all any of us need.
Not a nice band.
Not a hip preacher-man.
Not a laser light show.
Not a coffee shop in the lobby of the auditorium of the mega-church.
We just need the Body and Blood of Jesus in the sacrifice of the Mass, as He taught us to do. To consume Him in remembrance of Him.
Get to Mass, which is the only way to...
Stay the course.
Keep the faith.
Endure.
Now go sell something.
