This song has been running through my mind all day. LOL! Makes me think of my dad who loved Frank Sinatra (except Dad's voice was even better.) I grew up with scratchy 78s and the cool 45s
Oh, it looks really nasty out. It is as dark as dusk and the air smells damp. There is a cool breeze coming in the back door and it is thundering and lightening. Harold and Howard are over at Anna's and they were working on the roof. My guess is that they are done for the day. I sure hope this gets it out of its system before the 5k tonight.
Well, the power just went out - you can feel that the air is lighter now that the humidity is dropping. The storm is moving east so I am hopeful about tonight.
Saturday of the Twentieth week in Ordinary Time
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 23:1-12.
Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples,
saying, "The scribes and the Pharisees have taken their seat on the chair of Moses.
Therefore, do and observe all things whatsoever they tell you, but do not follow their example. For they preach but they do not practice.
They tie up heavy burdens (hard to carry) and lay them on people's shoulders, but they will not lift a finger to move them.
All their works are performed to be seen. They widen their phylacteries and lengthen their tassels.
They love places of honor at banquets, seats of honor in synagogues,
greetings in marketplaces, and the salutation 'Rabbi.'
As for you, do not be called 'Rabbi.' You have but one teacher, and you are all brothers.
Call no one on earth your father; you have but one Father in heaven.
Do not be called 'Master'; you have but one master, the Messiah.
The greatest among you must be your servant.
Whoever exalts himself will be humbled; but whoever humbles himself will be exalted.
