I see so much anger in the world, in our nation. I think, tough we don't realize it fully, even Christians believers have become angry, but its not really righteous anger. We want a warrior king, sword in hand. We want a political messiah who will fix our government with a political solutions. I have to watch myself, as I too can fall into that trap! Perhaps our prayer should be "Come Lord Jesus. Not will but thy will be done!"
I chose your Sunday reflection for the Missio hyperlink in Catholic Nutshell News today, Phillip. Not sure if you saw my email confirming permission to highlight Missio Dei in my daily Catholic news briefs. Good stuff on your site, and I want to publicize what you all are doing. I link to a Missio reflection almost every day. See pearring.substack.com for a review.
Thanks John. I just haven’t had the time to sit down and respond back you yet, but you’re free to republish articles that are not behind a paywall from Missio Dei provided that they reference both Missio Dei & their author.
This is the latest sample of what I’m doing with Missio Dei reflections. I pull out a brief paragraph summary and promote the article, the site, and the author. I selected your piece for yesterday’s Catholic Nutshell News.

Prepare your hearts for the Lord (Title, hyperlinked)
By Phillip Hadden, November 27, 2022 (Author, hyperlinked)
The Church provided Advent to refocus our efforts and to model ourselves after the Lord Jesus, the man of humility. The time is now. Do not be caught off guard when the Lord comes again to gather His people. Those whom the Lord chooses have repented and come to believe the entirety of the gospel, unashamed of it. Two men or two women will be going to mass, one will be taken, and one will be left. Which one will you be?
We are to celebrate the soon to be birthday of our Saviour,while readying ourselves for the time of His coming again!
Amen.

It'll be posted in about an hour, by the way, in case you try and refer to it before then!
