Preaching about God

Today is the feast of St. Dominic whose heart was so full of God's word that he could not keep it in. He preached. I think of how we might preach even if we are shy or not prone to stand on street corners or in pulpits announcing God's presence. We are all called to preach with our lives. I think in our world, there is a strong message in our living together in community. We are such an individualistic society. Living together in harmony with people we have not specifically chosen is very rewarding, if not always easy. It does preach something our world needs to hear.
