As I read today's mass readings I had to ask myself, "What do I think I am doing beginning each day in this manner". The passage from Joel is yet another warning that IAMIAM is all powerful and ready to take action against those who are enemies of the Chosen People.The Psalm is  another paen of joy in the Justice and Goodness of God . The one line gospel passage is a lone voice of praise for the created being, humanity, Jesus which the Creator of all that is real has accepted to become from the moment of conception to the death on the Cross.

In my brain which, hopefully, controls the typing fingers at the end of my arms there are all sorts of things stored, my knowledge. That knowledge has come to me from my senses which are the guardians of my body. These senses are what I share with all animals. 

"Happy the womb that bore you and the breasts which you sucked".  

The answer, that is still coming to me, to the question that I asked myself this morning and most moments of the day is that I am doing this because the Lord, Our God is great and full of compassion and I am trying to pray. IAMIAM has, out of love for us, done for us the unthinkable. He has become a mammalian body in a human womb to be carried  by a human mother, to be born, to live as do all humans and to suffer unimaginable pains and death. He has thus reveled to us the Trinity of his being and the meaning of our life.

The meaning of the awareness of being that is the life of  my soul is that God became man and has given us the means to avoid sin.

Hail, Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee, Blessed art thou among women and Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus! 

Dear Lord you know that I was feeling pretty good as I struggled to find the words to express the message my soul has found in these my end times. Forgive all my sins and help me to achieve integrity and love for You and all your creations including those who are continuing to slaughter humanity. 

May Mary's prayers bring some of the Holy Souls to paradise this day and may she continue to lead all the Saints in prayers for all the World that we may use the grace won for us to live as Father, Son and Holy Spirit would have us live in this world to be ready for the Spiritual life that will be ours to the end of time.
