Family Love Mystery

The Roman Catholic Lectionary today, in Canada, looks at the thankfulness we often experience in our family life. The mystery of the relationships between children and parents and children and grandparents are threads to take to the understanding of the relationship between Creature and Creator. The love between humans can be a deep mystery. The extent to which an individual will give and live for another has been shown to be beyond understanding or “common sense”. Our Promise is that the indwelling Spirit will allow us to experience the fullness of joy which results from being in the Presence which is anticipated by the psalmist today in praising the joy of worship in the Temple. Our temple, the Temple of the Promise, is the ‘earthen vessel’ of out being.
