Opus Dei Boston Bloggers

Bill and I are members of Opus Dei living in the Boston area with our nine children and five grandchildren (fortunately not in the same house). We want to be a witness to the ordinary life members of Opus Dei lead, and to correct the crazy rumors coming from The Da Vinci Code and other places. We will often comment on THE WAY, a book by St Josemaria Escriva that was published by Doubleday last May.

THE WAY #7


"Get rid of that 'small-town' outlook. Enlarge your heart till it becomes universal, 'catholic'.
Don't flutter about like a hen, when you can soar to the heights of an eagle."

I've just returned from a retreat. Who would think that to be more universal, to be able to soar like an eagle, it's important to pull away for a few days? We need to gain perspective and that is too difficult when we are in the day to day struggle. Parents need to step back and place their concerns on the patten at Mass.
