Welcome !

Greetings to all who love to wander along the paths of the Holy Scriptures! The purpose of this blog is to share some of the insights of ordinary Catholics who have begun to delve into the mysteries of the Sacred Scriptures. Hopefully you will find these reflections inspiring and insightful. We are faithful to the Church, but we are not theologians; we intend and trust that our individual reflections will remain within the inspired traditions of the Church. (If you note otherwise please let me know!) Discussion and comments are welcome, but always in charity and respect! Come and join us as we ponder the Sacred Scriptures, which will lead us on the path into His heart, which "God alone has traced" Job 28:23.

The Dormition of Mary




Just wanted to share this lovely photo taken in the Holy Land.  I believe its from the Church of the Dormition in Jerusalem.  Every time I comtemplate this photo I always think of St Therese's way of spiritual childhood.  Mary is so small wrapped in white garments in Jesus' arms!  Its also unique as most churches in the Holy Land have Mary holding or standing near a infant or child Jesus.  Enjoy!
