Holy Holy Holy Lord God Almighty

And for Trinity Sunday, the handbell choir with Paul Piazza on trumpet, performed this beautiful arrangement of Holy Holy Holy Lord God Almighty. Very inspiring.

Do you hear the Spirit?

Pentecost Sunday marks the end of the Easter season and the coming of the Holy Spirit to the Apostles and the Virgin Mary. "And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a mighty wind coming, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. And there appeared to them parted tongues as it were of fire, and it sat upon every one of them: And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they began to speak with diverse tongues, according as the Holy Ghost gave them to speak." [Acts 2:2-4]

Do you have the Spirit?

Reflection Hymn for the 9th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Jesus said to his disciples: “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven." Proclaiming God's message includes acting on the teachings of Jesus. Our reflection hymn "Count Thou Fount of Every Blessing" includes these words:
Come, Thou Fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise.



Not just songs of praise but songs of loudest praise. Not just listening to His word but acting on His word. How is it possible to sing in praise when our troubles are sometimes too much to handle? If we let His teachings transform  us, we can weather any storm.
Let Thy goodness like a fetter
Bind my wand'ring heart to Thee.


Here is an earlier blogpost with a recording of this hymn.
