Favorite Bible Bits

Barbara Gawle, Class of 2001 and Boadt Medal recipient, sends us this tidbit from the prophets:

When I found your words, I devoured them; your words were my joy, the happiness of my heart. (Jeremiah 15:16)

How many of us can identify with the burning desire to take in more and more of the sacred word, to know that it is a search that knows no bounds, to spill over with excitement when we share it with others, to find within it our joy and delight. We sometimes cannot devour the words fast enough to make them our own, to make God come alive, to savor the mystery and message of salvation. How wonderful is the Catholic Biblical School to set that desire ablaze within us. How good is the Spirit to keep the desire alive in our hearts.
