The Catholic Calendar for Friday, June 4, 2004
Friday of the Ninth Week in Ordinary Time

Scripture from Friday's Liturgy of the Word:
2 Timothy 3:10-17
Psalm 119:157,160-161,165-166,168
Mark 12:35-37

A reflection on today's Sacred Scripture:

God is infinitely more than our eyes can see or our minds imagine.

We're so limited, while He is so limitless; and only when the Holy Spirit enlightens us, do we begin to catch even the faintest glimpse of Him. Such mere glimpses are enough to leave us in rightful awe.

"How Great Thou Art!" ... yet, how unaware we are of You!

You, O Lord, are moving so powerfully amongst us, yet we are blinded by your perfect Light. Most Holy Spirit bless our eyes, that we may see You; whisper in our ears Your Perfect Truth. We struggle so vainly without You - take our hands and lead us. Surely but one touch from You will melt our hearts and inflame us with a burning desire to see Your Face --- and marvel at It's reflection in each other.

Amen!

- Nancy Collingwood
