This evil and faithless generation asks for a sign,
but no sign will be given it except the sign of the
prophet Jonah.
And guess the OT mass reading? This is a perfect illustration of what I was talking about a few days ago: the liturgy is a vital part of our mindset for each day. This antiphon is a sign in itself. We can safely assume that the antiphon, the Old Testament reading, and the Gospel reading are all the fitting subject of today's Lectio.
This morning I am compelled to say that were it not for my being able to attend mass at Gethsemani every morning I am able, then there would be no renunciations going on at all in my life. Were it not for the place itself, and it's influence on me, I would not be writing in this blog, attending church of any kind, and probably in a terrible state.
Place matters.
