Psalm 105:2-3

Sing praise to him, play music; proclaim all his wondrous deeds! Glory in his holy name; let hearts that seek the LORD rejoice!

Each of us has a choice.

Either look for things to gripe about or look for things to be grateful for.

We have many reasons to be thankful.

Sure, there are troubles such as COVID-19 and other diseases.

There are vindictive political divisions which need to be transformed into civil and spirited debates over ideas.

Many people are struggling in life as they deal with circumstances beyond their control.

But God is here and with us – always!

As St. Paul put it: In God “we live and move and have our being” (Acts 17:28).

The Zen master Rinzai instructed his student: “What, in this moment, is lacking?”

The answer is: nothing!

In this moment, we have everything.

There is an Infinite Love that holds us and all things.

May we awaken to this reality.

May we be present to this Love and allow it to energize us.

And then may we channel it to everyone and everything.

Be a living song of praise to God!
