Readings for Sunday, May 24, 2009

In true backwards fashion I'm going to preach on the gifts this Sunday and the gift-giving Holy Spirit next Sunday (on Pentecost).
Most of us know very little about the Gifts of the Spirit, and very little of what we do know is from actual experience.
But I suspect that our great failure is not in knowing too little about them, but rather in wanting them too little.
It would be unreasonable to expect the gift Giver not to take personally our astonishing indifference to His gifts.
