Thought for the day:

"Give me grace to amend my life, and to have an eye to mine end, without grudge of death, which to them that die in thee,
good Lord, is the gate of a wealthy life."
St. Thomas More

THREE THINGS

"Three things are necessary for the salvation of man; to know what he ought to believe; to know what he ought to desire; and to know what he ought to do."
St. Thomas Aquinas

Rights of Man?

"The people have heard quite enough about what are called the 'rights of man'. Let them hear about the rights of God for once". Pope Leo XIII Tamesti future, Encyclical

Eternity

All souls owe their eternity to Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, many have turned their back to him.

Feast of the Holy Family

Feast of the Holy Family. Click on this link to the left and read what St. Bernard says about this day.
Today we remember our beloved Holy Family. It consists of a father, a Mother, and a Child. We are taught what we need to know to reach eternal happiness in the simplest way. We are to be humble as God Himself, as He presented Himself to us as a lowly human. We are taught to honor our parents, learn a trade, and , most of all, to do the Father's business in a way which acceptable to Him. Pretty simple, isn't it?
