Thought for the Day
Jesus is at a marriage feast. He is enjoying himself. His mother, sitting beside him, is thoughtful, observing, making herself useful among the people, doing good. Shouldn’t that be a picture of our own lives?
With Mechtild of Magdeburg we pray:
Pour out compassion and mercy
from the depths of your heart
and give to the poor and the broken
the service of your love.
Mechtild of Magdeburg: from Woman’s Song of God
