Rather--God led me to find it! For three days I searched high and low, under and in between---well everywhere for my MP3 player that had my favorite music to listen to recorded on it.

"I would rather have the approval of God over the accolades of men. For while men might 'lift' me up, God is the only One who can 'take' me up."

Jesus could have spent His earthly life working physical cures and raising people from the dead. Had he stuck to these aims alone, He would have remained popular. There’s no telling how successful He might have become in the eyes of the world!... (www.catholic365.com)

Open your heart - open it wide; someone is standing outside.

A hardened heart is a dangerous spiritual predicament because when our hearts are hardened nothing can touch them, nothing can enter into them; hardened hearts are closed to God’s spirit and life, closed to any possibility of healing and hope.... (www.catholic365.com)

Saint Abel the Just; His was the first recorded death in Human History; Feast Day, January 3

The holy people from the Old Testament are not usually called saints. We do not say, “St. Abraham”, or “St. Moses” as we do for St. Joseph or St John. But the Church does allow for them to be called saints one day during the year. That day is their acknowledged feast day. There are forty-two differe... (www.catholic365.com)

A FEW SINCERE QUESTIONS FOR MY PROGRESSIVE-LIBERAL FRIENDS!

Jesus Christ through our Church has long exhorted us to maximal participation in public life (CCC, 1915). Indeed, we share the call to claim the world for Jesus Christ.
