Everything, everything we do starts a chain of events which stretch far past the immediate thought, word or deed. If I could just keep that in mind, I would be so much more conscientious about thinking, speaking, and acting in Christ and not in my own wayward ways.

Have you read this?

Just received my copy from Amazon.com. As one reviewer wrote:

Fulton Sheen's book Life of Christ is a literary masterpiece. Sheen brilliantly navigates through the life of our Lord and highlights some of the more touching moments, while really bringing to life the moments that often get overlooked. Most importantly, this book will help you to nurture and inculcate a deeper and more profound love for Jesus Christ.

I mention this only because this notion of sounds and action going forth into the universe is part of Sheen's work. Some of this work is profound - so much so that I had to stop and reflect on his words.

No, I haven’t read Sheen’s life of Christ -— but I’ll put it on my wish list! Thanks!
