Rorate caeli desuper

Since it's raining - & since many folks (including me) often, sadly, equate whether it's a good day or a bad day according to whether it's raining or not - I thought this 2-part post was appropriate.

Remember, it's reigning.
. . .

From Advent & Christmas with Fulton J. Sheen:

"Many good souls are hungry to do great things for God... They would be martyrs; but when a meal is late, or a bus is crowded, when the theatre is filled..., or the bacon overdone, they are upsert for the whole day. They miss the opportunities for loving God in the little things He asks of them."
. . .

Introit for the 4th Sunday of Advent:

Drop down dew, ye heavens, from above & let the clouds rain the just; let the earth be opened & bud forth a Saviour.

The heavens show forth the glory of God & the firmament declareth the work of His hands.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
