Proclaim God’s marvelous deeds to all the nations.
Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all you lands. Sing to the Lord; bless God’s name.
Proclaim God’s marvelous deeds to all the nations.

The Dominican Sisters in Tacoma live in the land of Chihuly, so I have framed their picture with a detail from the ceiling in the permanent exhibit in Tacoma, Washington.
For many years, at great cost, I traveled through many countries, saw the high mountains, the oceans. The only things I did not see were the sparkling dewdrops in the grass just outside my door.
Perpetual gratitude toward people around us initiates habits of thankful prayer.
It also starts a chain reaction of giving thanks, till our friends and loved ones and our whole world
become imbued in grateful living.
To all my readers: I am trying a new Theme, one that changes color with each picture. I am happy to hear your comments regarding this change of theme . . . whether or not I should keep it or go back to the older one. Thanks! Pat
From today’s Responsorial Psalm (Psalm 97) we read:
Let all God’s angels worship God.
The heavens proclaim God’s justice and all people see God’s glory. All gods are prostrate before the Lord.
Today is the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord. Today’s Entrance Antiphon for the Sunday Liturgy is from Matthew 3:16-17.

After the Lord was baptized, the heavens were opened, and the Spirit descended upon him like a dove, and the voice of the Father thundered: This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.
