Tomorrow is the feast of Christ the King. Jesus: "My kingdom is not of this world," but it is in the world. He came to establish a kingdom of truth for our intellect; a kingdom of justice and holiness for our will; a kingdom of love and peace for our heart. If we follow Him, He will lead us into His eternal kingdom.
Remember when Pilate and Jesus were face to face at the "trial", when Jesus answered that He was in fact a King, and said that He had come into the world to bear witness to the truth? He said that everyone who is of the truth hears His voice. And remember that Pilate turned and walked away from Him and said, "What is truth?" How many people do we know who turn away from the truth when it is presented to them? Too many to count. How many think that this is just another Sunday? They need many prayers.
Lord, have mercy. Please?
"We have no government armed with power capable contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."
John Adams
Remember that the election is only 3 days away now. Vote as if your life depends on it, because it does. We need to ask the prayers of the ever-virgin Mary, our eternal Mother, that she obtain for our country the privilege to be in the good graces of God again by sending us better representatives.
