RESPONSORIAL PSALM:

The Lord gave them bread from heaven.

IMPULSES FOR PRAYER:

Exodus 19:3-6;  Deuteronomy 8:1-20;  Psalm 147;  Romans 13:11-14

MEDITATION:

Because evil still carves new marks on the face of the earth, we conclude that in the deepest heart of reality love is dead. But he is there. He is the heart of this earthly world and the mysterious seal of its validity.

Karl Rahner SJ (d.1984)
