The word and warning is out there . . .

Two thoughts from the Holy Father's Holy Thursday sermon that I found very pertinent to our world today. God sure sends out the 'wake up' notices yet how few heed them!

The Holy Father alluded to the countries of the West, saying that Jesus "knows all about empty places at table, invitations refused, lack of interest in him and his closeness."

"For us," he said, "the empty places at the table of the Lord’s wedding feast, whether excusable or not, are no longer a parable but a reality, in those very countries to which he had revealed his closeness in a special way."
