A Friday Quote
As this third day after the Epiphany draws to a close, I remembered these few lines from The Most Reverend Oscar Romero, martyred archbishop of El Salvador:
"Christianity is not a collection of truths that one has to believe, of laws one has to keep, a list of prohibitions. That would be repugnant. Christianity is a person that loved me so much that he demands my love. Christianity is Christ." (November 6, 1977) -- from Through the Year with Oscar Romero.
I pray that our Epiphany journey will bring us face to face with Christ -- however unsettling such an encounter could be.
