Today's praises in place of the responsorial psalm are from Daniel 3: 52, 53, 54, 55, 56. One of the blessings is: Blessed are you who look into the depth from your throne upon the cherubim, praiseworthy and exalted above all forever."
As I encountered the difficulties of this day and lost my "cool," I did not, for sure, pray a blessing or praise God. I felt anything but blessed nor did I feel like blessing the person who "got under my skin." I do know, however, that God sees into the depth of this person. He sees what I do not see and He loves her unconditionally. He reads her heart--a heart that overflows with love for all and for whom she will go to any length to show her love.
The other lesson that God may be trying to teach us when "turbulence" appears is that it is important to praise God in both the pleasant or unpleasant situations of any given day! Truly we need to say: Blessed are you who look into the depths from your throne upon the cherubim, praiseworthy and exalted above all forever.
