As we get ready to begin the new liturgical year this Sunday [First Sunday of Advent], my thoughts turn to this past year. In so many ways, I have 'dropped the ball'. Even in the midst of this, I experience the love of the Lord through my friends, my brothers and sisters. This is both an encouragement and a challenge.
Firmum est cor meum. Such was the motto of the seminary I attended. "My heart is steadfast." Lord, may my heart be steadily set on You. May I not see everything in terms of what I do for You and Your people (where I so miserably fail); but in terms of allowing myself to be loved by You. Thank You!
