As you digest this slice of Daily Bread, know that it is the 60,001st slice receiving a "hit" since we began sending them in 2009. 172 of them yesterday in Russia, far surpassing the "hits" in the United States! A friend told me yesterday that there is a religious awakening in Russia, so much so that Easter Services were televised live from the Cathedral in Moscow, a first!
Another friend who preached in his church on Sunday reported that a parishioner thanked him for brining her " closer to Jesus"... The preacher is only 18!!!
Jordan Spieth, 21, not only won the Masters in Augusta, but has won the hearts of fans and viewers worldwide with his skill tempered with simplicity and humility. He is Jesuit educated and devoted to his family. A good man!
It is no surprise that humble things, humble people win hearts. for didn't Jesus say, "Blessed are the meek for they will inherit the earth, and blessed are the pure of heart, for they shall see God."? (Mt 5: 5,7).
There are marvels in the world outside of Marvel Comics that inspire, encourage, and reassure us that the violence taking place in the mid-East, in Aleppo, for example, will not prevail...but if the followers of Jesus live as he described in the Beatitudes, there would be peace, love, and joy in our world.
