		<title>Lord, the one you love is sick</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday&#8217;s Gospel and today&#8217;s both speak of illness and Jesus curing the sick. Sickness &#8211; we are all sick in one form or another: mentally, spiritually, physically, emotionally; we all grow old, make mistakes, have accidents &#8211; we bring it &#8230; <a href="http://www.benincasaop.org/2012-02-07/lord-the-one-you-love-is-sick/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>January 18 &#8211; our withered hands</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In today&#8217;s Gospel Jesus heals a man with a withered hand. The pharisees object because he does it on the Sabbath. The man&#8217;s hand is withered and Jesus heals it. The pharisees&#8217; minds and hearts on the other hand not &#8230; <a href="http://www.benincasaop.org/2012-01-19/january-18-our-withered-hands/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>January 4 &#8211; In-carn-ation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Incarnation &#8211; God personally entering our finite world by taking on a human body in a specific time and place.  The mystery is unfathomable!  And it  transforms everything: The invisible has become visible; the  changeless changing &#8211; and vice-versa:  the &#8230; <a href="http://www.benincasaop.org/2012-01-05/january-4-in-carn-ation/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>January 3 &#8211; Holy Name of Jesus</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Who God is for us &#8211; and who we are to God &#8211; is beautifully expressed in the liturgical texts for this day. Jesus&#8217; name &#8211; God&#8217;s name &#8211; is who God is:  &#8216;God Saves.&#8217;  We have nothing to fear; &#8230; <a href="http://www.benincasaop.org/2012-01-04/january-3-holy-name-of-jesus/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>January 2, 2012: God made manifest</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Christmas is God come to live among us &#8211; revealed, made manifest. The invisible has become visible. We can see God, hear him, touch him with our own hands. What we read in the Gospels in another place: &#8220;What is &#8230; <a href="http://www.benincasaop.org/2012-01-03/january-2-2012-god-made-manifest/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Dec 28: The child within</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Quoting John Tauler, a famous 14th century Dominican : &#8220;Our own soul is the Divine Child.&#8221; We must then nurture this Divine Child, protect it from evil forces, help it to grow, guide it and love it. It is true. &#8230; <a href="http://www.benincasaop.org/2011-12-29/dec-28-the-child-within/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Dec 27: &#8220;he saw, he believed&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What St John saw when he looked into the empty tomb and what he believed are two different things. He saw the empty linens that had enshrouded the Body of Jesus; he understood far more &#8211; he believed that Jesus &#8230; <a href="http://www.benincasaop.org/2011-12-29/dec-27-he-saw-he-believed/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>A little Child will lead them</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Christmas &#8211; God in our midst as a baby: a revelation of where the true dignity, beauty and glory of our humanity is to be found &#8211; not in riches or power, not in fame, nor in privilege.
