Articles

On this blog I try to proclaim of the message of hope and love which is not often heard in modern society! As a reader, I ask you to rate the articles I write using the star rating at the bottom of the article. It is always hard to know if it is worth spending the time on writing these short reflections and any feedback is greatly appreciated!

The Irish Dominicans have started making some small video clips recently and have also started a new website with online resources. These can be found by following the following link: videos.

The babe leaped in her womb (Lk 1:42)

Just a quick post as there are many house duties this morning to be done...

The gospel today happens to be the same as yesterday's Gospel, so I would refer back to my short reflection on that Gospel.

However, I would also just put the text of the first reading down here, as this morning during mass it just struck me as a lovely text to meditate a bit upon:


Zep 3:14 Sing aloud, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel! Rejoice and exult with all your heart, O daughter of Jerusalem!
15 The LORD has taken away the judgments against you, he has cast out your enemies. The King of Israel, the LORD, is in your midst; you shall fear evil no more.
16 On that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: "Do not fear, O Zion; let not your hands grow weak.
17 The LORD, your God, is in your midst, a warrior who gives victory; he will rejoice over you with gladness, he will renew you in his love; he will exult over you with loud singing
18 as on a day of festival. "I will remove disaster from you, so that you will not bear reproach for it.
