The flood was the prefiguring of the baptism we now share with Christ, and which we prepare to renew in this holy season. My homily for this weekend is posted here.
great homily, Fr. C! it's a good reminder from you on what our baptism really means. what inspires me most in your homily is where you say that "God recreates us gently from within," through our baptism. that's a beautiful way to think about baptism! also, as during the advent season, we're preparing the way of the Lord during this season of Lent, too, but in a deeper, more prayerful and intimate way. the season of Lent is a quieter, more peaceful time, which is one of the reasons Lent and Easter are my favorite times of the liturgical year. i also love ordinary time in the summer. a peaceful Lent to all! Pax et Bonum! ~tara t~
Faithful, or even just thoughtful criticisms are always welcome. Uninformed rudeness to other posters or to the Lord and His Church is not.
I also reserve the right to reject comments promoting things like private revelations and fringe points of view, if it seems to me like they are being presented in a misleading way.
If you raise a disagreement with something I say but I do not respond, please do not feel slighted or insulted, or imagine that this automatically means I disagree or agree with you. It's just that I don't find the comment box to be a constructive medium for certain forms of debate.
