TRADCATKNIGHT: Fr. Campbell, Secondhand Lives Run to obtain the prize, says St. Paul (1Cor.9:24). But strive only for those things which are worthy of your desire. Our wayward desires which are of the flesh alone can be deadly to our spiritual lives. The prophet Amos makes these scathing remarks about the Samaritans:
“You would put off the evil day, yet you hasten the reign of violence! Lying upon beds of ivory, stretched comfortably on their couches, they eat lambs from the flock, and calves from the stall! Improvising to the music of the harp, like David, they devise their own accompaniment. They drink wine from bowls and anoint themselves with the best oils; yet they are not made ill by the collapse of Joseph!” (Joel 6:3-6).
