2. Today is a yuge opportunity to encounter God’s mercy. St. Patrick’s in New York as an example here. Check out #24HoursfortheLord where you live.

A primer on what it all is and means here.

3. Pope Francis on the priest as a channel of God’s mercy in Confession and:

it is important that the confessor also be a ‘channel of joy’ and that the penitent faithful, after having received absolution, not feel the weight of his or her sins. They need to taste the work of God which freed them, live in thanksgiving, and be ready to repair the damage of their sins, going out to their brothers and sisters with an open and welcoming heart.

Demons can only get control of men when they've deceived them, the same way demagogues teach as true what they know to be false. -Augustine

5. I know I needed this, from Bishop Sam Jacobs today:

When monologue turns into fruitful dialogue with the Lord, our mental ramblings will become meaningful prayer, even if happens part of the time.

6. St. Gregory the Great today reflecting on Job in the Office of Readings of the Liturgy of the Hours:

If the sacrament of the Lord’s passion is to work its effect in us, we must imitate what we receive and proclaim to mankind what we revere. The cry of the Lord finds a hiding place in us if our lips fail to speak of this, though our hearts believe in it. So that his cry may not lie concealed in us it remains for us all, each in his own measure, to make known to those around us the mystery of our new life in Christ.

7. Today’s Mass readings.

Let us not flee from the resurrection of Jesus, let us never give up, come what will. #PopeFrancis
