Ok. Everything isn't moved yet, but the new blog is set up and ready to roll.

I'm moving too...

It seems to be the universal reaction of anyone with conscience to the realization of what Blogger allows on its site. I'll post a link to the new blog as soon as it's ready...

Some Thoughts for Lent
from Benedict XVI

Sacramentum Caritatis!

The Church's "thoughts" are the Spirit's "thoughts," so these are the best meditations of all:

Some thoughts for Lent
from Sr. Miriam of the Holy Ghost (Jessica Powers)

Nor do you know your dwelling
for dark is your retreat,
and who would guess that darkness
could hold the Paraclete?

…
Measure your love by stillness.
He waits; do you as well
give to His infinite patience
your finite parallel.

…
When quiet has possessed you,
and dark has fled with dim,
you on a mount of morning
will be aware of Him.

(from “O Spirita Sancta”)

To live with the Spirit of God is to be a listener.
It is to keep the vigil of mystery,
earthless and still.
One leans to catch the stirring of the Spirit,
strange as the wind’s will.

The soul is all activity, all silence;
and though it surges Godward to its goal,
it holds, as moving earth holds sleeping noonday,
the peace that is the listening of the soul.

(from “To Live With the Spirit”)
