LIVING THE YEAR OF MERCY - From Father Ron Rolheiser’s weekly column: THE 10 COMMANDMENTS OF MERCY. What are they? 7). “Remember that only the practice of mercy will make God’s Kingdom come.” Jesus promised us that someday the meek will inherit the earth, the poor will eat plentiful, rich food, and all tears will be wiped away.

GOD AND THE SPACE BETWEEN!

We cannot know God, and therefore cannot love Him, unless we listen to Him. And we cannot listen to Him unless we are silent. If we are focusing on what we want to tell God, or how we want to serve God, then we are apt to miss God completely as He makes Himself known in those spaces between our talking. And sadly, we often don’t give Him any space at all.

Similarly, we cannot know or love our neighbor unless we first listen in silence. If we are too focused upon talking to (or at) our neighbor, or determining what we think is wrong with our neighbor, then we are not able to understand or love him. We must listen, truly listen, and then ponder quietly in order to love. For we cannot love what (or whom) we do not know, and we cannot know unless we truly dwell with another in those spaces in between the noises.

The “space between” is so frequently ignored in our society. On average, Americans spend hours daily on some sort of social media device. We tend to rush through conversations, meetings, and time with loved ones. We want to get to the point, the meeting, the high, the kiss, and the score.

KNIGHT OF THE MONTH - The members of the Knights Of Columbus have recognized Rich Davis as the August “Knight of the Month” at their monthly meeting.

HUMOR - A Canadian psychologist is

is smarter than you.
