The Magnificat today gives us a useful reflection from Abbot Dom Anscar Vonier, O.S.B. (+1906). Here is an excerpt:"Let us believe in God's perfect, absolute, daily control of the events of our lives. It is a difficult matter to accept if we are not religiously minded, if we have become sophisticated with doubt..."
He goes on to speak in contrast of how God acts in our lives when we submit to his will instead of our own:
"What do you know of the difficulties you might have had to encounter? What can you foresee of the entanglements in which you might have found yourself before long."

Looking forward to going home and spending more time reflecting on these thoughts from the Magnificat today. Today (as always but especially today)I truly need to believe that God has absolute control of the events in my life.
When I first looked at this picture, I wondered what wonderful place you had visited. Second glance I realized it was from our courtyard! Fabulous use of light and camera angle.
