Sunday

 Pray for Ukraine

The news has been a lot this past week.  I'm adding a new series of post on Sunday to help re-focus and maybe reset our life for the coming week with all the ups and downs.  A Bible verse to think about, to reflect on, and contemplate.  These readings will be from the Sunday Mass or some of my favorite verses. 

The post today is from Sunday Mass.

 

Sir 27:4-7

When a sieve is shaken, the husks appear;

so do one’s faults when one speaks.

As the test of what the potter molds is in the furnace,

so in tribulation is the test of the just.

The fruit of a tree shows the care it has had;

so too does one’s speech disclose the bent of one’s mind.

Praise no one before he speaks,

for it is then that people are tested.
