Happy Queenship of Mary!

Out In The Fields With God

The little cares that fretted me,

I lost them yesterday

Among the fields above the sea,

     Among the winds at play;

Among the lowing of the herds,

     The rustling of the trees,

Among the singing of the birds,

     The humming of the bees.

The foolish fears of what may happen,

     I cast them all away

Among the clover-scented grass,

     Among the new-mown hay;

Among the husking of the corn

     Where drowsy poppies nod,

Where ill thoughts die and good are born

     Out in the fields with God.

by Elizabeth Barrett Browning

     

The boys rode horse tonight to help round up the small herd at home.

Andrew and I were just discussing today how we would be able to better pray for each other and our children.  Wow!  Talk about timely “soul food!”

5 Lessons From God’s Creation Of The Family

Quote of the Day”Love Mary! She is loveable, faithful, constant. She will never let herself be outdone in love, but will ever remain supreme. If you are in danger, she will hasten to free you. If you are troubled, she will console you. If you are sick, she will bring you relief. If you are in need, she will help you. She does not look to see what kind of person you have been. She simply comes to a heart that wants to love her.”–St. Gabriel Possenti
