March Indulgence Calendar and a story

Here is the March Indulgence Calendar

Here is the blank version:

and I have a little story for you. You may make of it what you will.

I brought my mike with me for total confusion because I needed to record my weekly radio show for WQPH (Queen of Perpetual Help) radio however circumstances never gave me the chance to record. So I figured no big deal I’d record on Monday which I took off but again somehow I just didn’t get a chance to record.

Now I was really getting up to a deadline so I was determined to get the show recorded right after daily mass but somehow I kept getting delayed till FINALLY I was able to get started.

I had just listed the prayer intentions for the show when the phone rang (I don’t have a cell phone) I paused the recording to hear the voice of a friend. He was hospitalized, she already had heart issues which were expected to be fatal and was now recovering from a stroke. She asked for prayers for her mother and children and there was no knowledge of how long she would be around.

Now this is the thing, if I had recorded the show at any of the times I should have it would have been in the bank and her request would have to wait for the next show to air March 9th. If I had managed to get started on my recordings early that morning as I planned same thing. And if she had called just a couple of hours later It would have been too late, I’d be at work and she would have missed me completely.

Nope she called at the exact moment in fact the last possible moment when I could squeeze in her prayer intentions to get them into the show broadcast tomorrow.

I submit and suggest that this type of thing is God’s MO and has been for millennia. Any reading of scripture shows it to be so, and I further submit and suggest that God is just as active as he was during biblical times to those who call upon him, but we’ve trained ourselves, or have been trained not to see what is in front of our faces.

At least that’s my take but feel free to make of it what you will.
