Hello everyone, I hope you are well and keeping safe.  Another beautiful day.  Just came in from prayers in the parking lot.  I was happy to take you with me.  Our little shrine brings so much comfort to many people.  Not a day goes by that I don't see a person or a family stop by and pray.  Today as I was sitting in my office upstairs, I could hear a father and son praying the Hail Mary.  Wonderful!  

I was tempted today to think if only I fixed up my desk and straightened out all of my affairs, I would be in a much better spiritual place.  It is probably very true.  But I need to remember that God walks with me here and now.  Certainly, clean up the desk, straighten out the room, answer all your (e)mail, get it together---all these are great things.  I would probably enjoy God more personally yet still I can enjoy and experience Him here and now in my messiness.  Probably revealing too much!!! 

Have a great day everyone, let us pray for one another.  

In the meantime, here is a great quote from one of my favorites, John Henry Newman:  

"I sought to hear the voice of God 

and climbed the topmost steeple, 

but God declared:  Go down again, 

I dwell among the people."
