Our homily this morning was, unusually, on the first reading and wisdom. Wisdom seen as understanding of the law and living by it. The music choices reflected and this some ways followed the trajectory of the Liturgy of the the Word. An alternative psalm in praise of the law to begin — Psalm 18. The Joncas song in some ways goes beyond the gospel — even gold and silver cannot compare. At Communion an image from the Gospel (though here the more pictorial Lucan version) which can also be applied to Communion itself. And finally Be thou my vision brought wisdom and treasure together.
