LESSONS FROM OUR MASTER



THE STATUE OF CHRIST CROWNED WITH THORNS VENERATED IN SEVILLE,SPAIN

The head containing the very mind of God with all wisdom and knowledge is used for a sick joke to mock Him as king by the crowning with piercing thorns.
Do I allow and foster impure thoughts?
Do I allow myself to think ill will about members of the opposite sex?
Do I harbor resentment for those who have hurt me in the past, and allow that to affect my current relationship?

CHOOSE YOUR PATH

The devil desires to keep souls prisoners but the Lord desires to set them free. 

The devil incites us to evil but the Saviour invites us to practice good.

LENT - GOD'S WORD

To get the full flavor of a herb, it must be pressed between the fingers, so it is the same with the Scriptures; the more familiar they become, the more they reveal their hidden treasures and yield their indescribable riches.
Saint John Chrysostom

LENT - LET US PUT ON THE LIFE OF GRACE

Help us to pass from our old life of sin
to our new life of grace. This week we let the powerful light of God’s love shine into the deepest, darkest corners of our soul, revealing the most un-loving parts of our hearts and we ask for forgiveness and healing. Perhaps we might make the Stations of the Cross  to stir our hearts more deeply with the sense of his love for us.

“Though I walk in the valley of darkness, I fear no evil, for you are with me. ”
Psalm 23

LENT - FASTING IS.............

“Do you fast? Give me proof of it by your works. If you see a poor man, take pity on him. If you see an enemy, be reconciled with him. If you see a friend gaining honor, do not be jealous of him. And let not only the mouth fast, but also the eye and the ear and the feet and the hands and all members of your bodies."

STJOHN CHRYSOSTOM

LENT - LET US ALL FOLLOW CHRIST

We must take refuge in the adorable Heart of our Good Shepherd. Let us go to Him like little sheep who seek the safety of their sheepfold against the infernal world.
He is full of Grace and full of Mercy. He will  bless us with what He has in store for us, provided we ask for it.

LENT - CONFESSION


Confession is not about how bad you are,
but about how good God is.
