🐦⬛🍞🍷✝️ ORA ET LABORA: St. Benedict ✝️🍷🍞🐦
from Ask Catholics Hosted by Let's Talk
🐦⬛🍞🍷✝️ ORA ET LABORA ✝️🍷🍞🐦⬛ Dropping March 20 — and then the very next day is St. Benedict’s feast (March 21), so yes… the timing is basically monastic-level providence. This song is for the calm, unbothered saint who helped shape Western monasticism by doing something wildly offensive to chaos: he made a Rule. Not hype. Not vibes. A way of life. And the stories are legendary: They tried to poison him… twice. A poisoned cup cracks clean after the sign of the Cross. Poisoned bread? A raven flies off with it. No theatrics—just steady holiness and the kind of order the enemy can’t stand. The hook says it best: knees go down, sleeves rolled up. Prayer isn’t an escape from reality—Benedict shows it’s the way reality gets rebuilt, one hour at a time. Little personal note: my wife and I are Benedictine oblates, so this one’s close to home.
