God touched Isaiah’s mouth with the ember. Jeremiah got off easier. God touched his mouth and put his words in it (Jeremiah 1:9) Thanks for setting it straight! And thanks to all readers at all times for commenting, sharing, taking Scripture and reflections to heart.

I think it was God asking Isaiah and not Jeremiah, “Whom shall I send.”
But in the end, love is all that matters – love of God and man.

I will be reading Michael Quoist and also sharing this with friends and family. I felt this reflection as powerfully but gently driven by the Holy Spirit. May all who read be blessed to heed its message.

reflection on Christ wanting us to love
others before ourselves. I am in a diocese that has been given the direction by our Bishop not to allow sacraments for gay, lesbian and transgender Catholics. Only if these Catholics repent will they be allowed participation in our Church. They are allowed no leadership roles like being a lector, but are allowed to minister to the poor. Thank you for your reflections. Iā€™m trying to hold on.

God has blessed you with insight into His words and the ability to be able to convey His messages with much clarity. I appreciate the love you share with us weekly.

talk about love of God and writing for this site. Spiritually your words today had to take a lot out of you but did not take away your love of reflecting on the gospel. Well done, absolutely thought provoking and beautiful! I read & re-read your words. Thanks šŸ™
