St. Ignatius of Loyola learned to find fruit, that is, the effect or consequence of action. More important than our actions is the action of God in, with and for humans. One grows to find fruit and to offer it the more one savors one's own life and all creation. I hope my posts help you feel that finding fruit is a profitable way of living.

Fourth "O" Antiphon. . .
. . .O clavis David
Isaiah prophesied, "I [the Lord] will place on his shoulder the key of the house of David; he shall open, and no one shall shut; he shall shut, and no one shall open" (22:22).
Messiah Jesus was accorded this title, along with Scepter of the House of Israel, too, because all authority is his to unlock what imprisons us.
