The homilist's first weekend in his new parishes has him considering "little things" which are necessary steps toward being enrobed in the love of the Kingdom of God.

We return to the Sundays of Ordinary Time.  "You are worth more than many sparrows" -- we are indeed precious in the sight of God.

"What is it?"  Manna means "what is it?"  "Not by bread alone do we live" -- therefore, we must plumb the depths of the mystery of the Body and Blood of Christ.

God is, fundamentally, relationship.  The Trinity gives us insight into the various relationships to which we are committed.

A number of people noticed that I seemed to be touching on politics in this homily.  I certainly was.  Isn't everything political?
