I am a reporter, & also own a small ranch. This blog was started to give me the opportunity to express things I couldn't in print, especially on spiritual matters. In this way, I neither compromise my journalistic objectivity, nor step on any professional toes.

20030522 :::
Both the Liturgy of the Hours & the Rosary have been keeping me close to the path all this week. Since Easter, I have found it so easy to stray; perhaps with the end of Easter in one week & the beginning of Ordinary Time, I will find it easier to be more faithful. Hope so, anyway.
It has been dreary & cold all week, but don't know if the weather is parallelling my sprituality. We're still working on Genesis at Tuesday compline. Our spiritual director, Jim, will be stepping down & Matthew--who has the most seniority--will be taking over the session, perhaps temporarily, perhaps not.
We were discussing the call of Abram & how it relates to the calling that we all receive. Abram too forgot or neglected the call; Abram too had to be reassured repeatedly by God; Abram had an understanding of the big picture, but painful little understanding of the smaller one. Since he is the father of so many...Jews, Arabs, & Christians...this is important for us to understand. His struggles with his calling mirror our own. Guess that God no more followed Abram's schedule than He does mine.
