The second year continues

From St. Cyril writing about the Gospel according to John: (T)he Spirit changes those in whom he comes to dwell; he so transforms them that they begin to live a completely new kind of life.

It would be trite to say I have been amazed that the changes that have marked the passage of the past year and I have no wish to diminish the intensity of what has been seen, experienced by trying to describe what has happened with tired phrasing and clichéd stock responses. All we can do is to rise up in prayer and give thanks to the Holy Spirit for continuing to refresh the old with a new way of living. I am anxious to begin my second trip through Office of Readings and the cycle of the Liturgy of the Hours. I am promised that the revelations will continue to spring out of the sacred texts.
