When it rains, it pours. That is a fact. Recently I have been wondering where I am going to get a calendar for the new year from. Yesterday, Anne passed to me one that came in the mail all the way from England. Today there was another large envelope in my mailbox. And yes, it is another wall calendar. It is a gift from Rosalynn called Psalms from my Heart. There is a different verse from the Book of Psalms for each calendar month superimposed into lovely photographs of flowers. Ros, thanks a whole lot. This is a very meaningful gift for the new year.
we can actually look to the the psalms as beautiful meaningful prayers.
when you are happy, when you are sad, when you want to praise the lord, even when at times you feel letdown by the lord… all these you can seek in the psalms.
peter, did you come across the calendar by the society of st vincent de paul? one month per page one. they are filled with beautiful verse on each page.
Lucia,
No. Are they on sale?
I used wake-up to the sweet voices of the Daughters of St Paul’s Choir in songs like Gentle Woman, The Magnificat, Regina Coeli, Tota Pulchra Es, etc in a CD of Marian songs titled “Handmaiden of the Lord”.
Having lost this CD a few years ago, I miss this ritual terribly. I’ve visited the Daughters of St Paul at Jalan Gasing, they don’t seem to have it.
Does anyone here know where in KL/PJ, I can get hold of a copy?
Arusa,
Those must be very beautiful songs. I hope you can get another copy.
