He stood up immediately before them - December 6, 2010

Those whom the LORD has ransomed will return and enter Zion singing, crowned with everlasting joy; They will meet with joy and gladness, sorrow and mourning will flee. Isaiah 35:10

Unfortunately the beauty and serenity of being Catholic is lost upon many of my neighbors who are busy watching the Redskins or the Real Housewives or doing whatever busy, educated urban professionals do when they are not working. The visibility of social justice keeps many concerns alive and active in many imaginations. The issues of today are complex conundrums. There are no quick fixes, no easy answers.

Prayer remains as an alternative to the hectic selfishness of our popular culture and society. The Great American Dream needs to be replaced with the Great American Prayer.

Each Christian is asked to contribute to the well-being of his community, parish, and family.
