This past Sunday (The 20th Sunday after Pentecost), I read the brief description of the Mass in my hand missal. It was just what I needed to read at this time in my life and I share it now in case it benefits any of you.
“The Liturgy shows us that our misfortunes are caused by our unfaithfulness in conforming to the Will of God. Let us be see the Lord, through the prayers of Holy Church, to pardon our sins, so that we may serve Him with a quiet and trustful heart, always obeying His precepts.”
