In Ireland, I had a lot of time for contemplation built into my schedule- I'm working on finding those times in the US. What to blog was more straightforward in Ireland since we would visit a castle, I'd take pictures, and then I'd have blog post. :-) This has been much more a year of transition than I expected and I've had trouble finding my rhythm. I'm confident I'll be back. :-)Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09963493181798474313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4034780182263991103.post-2642220461627843252014-03-15T00:49:10.489-04:002014-03-15T00:49:10.489-04:00Sorely missing your blog posts.

And, ha!, about the men. :-) The thing this clarified for me (as writing things out does) is why Jesus had to be a man. I'm not saying I know the mind of God or anything like that, but, it made significantly more sense- at least to me- but there is still plenty of mystery.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09963493181798474313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4034780182263991103.post-24158722169544511172013-10-05T20:12:34.800-04:002013-10-05T20:12:34.800-04:00Very beautiful, Becky!

Motherhood is a form of priesthood, looked at a certain way. A participation in the priesthood of all believers that only women can understand. This is why I have no trouble with the reality that only a man (but not every man) can be an ordained priest. When a woman has the privilege of motherhood... well, let the men do what they can.Leilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03432158981260636910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4034780182263991103.post-33546855525953046092013-10-04T09:35:56.643-04:002013-10-04T09:35:56.643-04:00Of course it's ok!

Is this in line with what you were taught? Most of what I've read lends more to the use of the suffering to atone for those in Purgatory.<br /><br />A big wave from Virginia!
