(I'm not say you took it from me!) I also used it as the homily for today's Mass.<br /><br />St. Martha's life in the Golden Legend is instructive as well; Jacobus praises her because she "thought that all the world was not sufficient to serve such a guest."<br /><br />FrHAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
