O Lumen Ecclesiae
Doctor veritatis
Rosa patientiae
Ebur castitatis
Aquam sapientiae
propinasti gratis
Praedicator gratiae
nos junge beatis.
-Traditional Dominican Hymn to Saint Dominic (video by the Blackfriars)
Lord, I thank You for the grace of the Holy Preaching which constantly saves the souls of so many of Your children, including my own.
And today, on this joyful feast, I give thanks to God for more of His 1000+X gifts:
- word that they are well
- 13 minutes faster
- rain pouring down
- ripples on the roadside
- umbrella sisters encouragement right before Holy Mass
- librarian's greeting
- homemade hamburgers
- the advent of Hope
- the Pope of my childhood is a Witness to Hope
- she's a natural
- fork wars
- mosquito-less evening (a miracle after the rain!)
- dry bench by the cliff
- Love endures longer than the sand it is written in down by the Bay
- A Mint Chocolate Chip Klondike and bedtime stories
- continuity in my new florilegium already
- chromis simonis and a didrachmon (Matthew 17:22-27)
- the Papacy endures to this day
- silence and solitude
- peace in my heart at the end of a beautiful day
- Founder's Feast and revelations of Divine Love
- constant guidance of Divine Providence
- The meeting went well and the data project is finished
- quiet waiting days, just living now...
