Today's Wisdom

Those who do not pass from the experience of the cross to the truth of the resurrection condemn themselves to despair! For we cannot encounter God without first crucifying our narrow notions of a god who reflects only our own understanding of omnipotence and power

Sing to the LORD

"Sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth" (Psalms 96: 1)
I thank you "my Lord and my God" (John 20: 28) for the life you gave me since my conception in the womb of my mother for her vow to St. George. I thank you for protecting me with your hand when medical experts diagnosed my heart problems in 1986 and in early 2017 when they found my aortic aneurysm dangerously squeezing my lungs as well as low level of oxygen in my blood, but your hand still extended my life. I thank you for the follow-up of top sleep-disorder physician during my hospitalization last August. I thank you for using the same expert this January to order for me the BiPap advanced technology machine which my wife (and children) assist me in using every night to sleep in peace. My God, You have used every expert to extend my life that I am now twice as old as when my heart problems (and cancer in the kidney too) started.
I thank you particularly for my wife, and children who continuously care for me. I thank you too for my brothers and their families and her sisters and brother and their families, and for our relatives who constantly ask about me. I thank you for our many friends who call or email me to ask about me; one of them calls me every day in spite of her busy time. I thank you particularly for the prayers that many priests offer for me and for the visits they make to my home when they can; Here I particularly thank you my Lord and God for the Jesuit scholar Fr. Henri Boulad and the equally Jesuit scholar Fr. Samir Khalil Samir for their constant prayers and encouragement, and Fr. Georges Farah for promptly asking about my health as well as my confessor Fr. Dr. Daniel Callam, CSB who constantly gives me sound advice.
