I am a great believer in New Beginnings.
Apparently, so is God.
"In the beginning" begins Genesis; "In the beginning" begins The Gospel according to St. John.
Holy Baptism is the Sacrament of New Beginning.
Reconciliation of a Penitent (which was known as Penance until its own eponymous new beginning to emphasize relationship rather than regret) is also a Sacrament of New Beginning.
My blog needs a new beginning, too. After faithfully offering a daily blog as my one and only New Year's Resolution, I got bogged down in other urgent and important, or urgent and not-so-important things, over the past several weeks. Some of the urgent and important things have been posted on the blog, so my silence hasn't been complete. Still, I need a New Beginning, and this is it!
