Thought for the Day – 16 July

The Carmelites were known from early on as “Brothers of Our Lady of Mount Carmel.” The title suggests that they saw Mary not only as “mother” but also as “sister.” he word sister is a reminder that Mary is very close to us.   She is the daughter of God and, therefore, can help us be authentic daughters and sons of God.   She also can help us grow in appreciation of being sisters and brothers to one another.   She leads us to a new realisation that all human beings belong to the family of God.   When such a conviction grows, there is hope that the human race can find its way to peace. (Fr. Don Miller, OFM)
