Puzzling?

I wonder why all Christians don't make the sign of the cross? Its iconicity is so ancient and deliberately Christian.

I Will Rejoice

When I hear a message like this preached...when I receive a jolt of true compassion and love through the reproof of my sinful heart...then I know I am indeed loved by the most Blessed Trinity!

Longing To Be One Body

Wondering why the Church, that is the Mystical Body of Christ here on earth, often forgets we have the same Father? As a Protestant Christian I prayed to my Father in Heaven,  as a Catholic Christian I pray to my Father in heaven. It was at His call I moved from one part of Christ's Body to another.  When I did  His love for me did not change.  He is a constant, true, faithful, loving and welcoming Father.  He wants me to be like Him. I am to be a constant, true, faithful, loving and welcoming daughter... And most times I want what He wants.
Father help me to want what you want all the time.

How Great A Foundation

Why do we Catholics seem to find the Protestant belief of sola scriptura (only scripture) so abhorrent that we respond by acting as if there is for us non scriptura (no scripture)?  What might happen to our hearts if we followed the lead of our Pope Benedict XVI?  What a gift of grace might we be to the world?

Listening With Longing

I tuned into my local Catholic radio station to listen to one of the national programs from a popular Catholic broadcaster. And suddenly I was longing to hear about Christ. Not about doctrine, forms of worship or how important it is to have more knowledge of The Church. Oh, why could they not mention His name?  When the conversation turned to St. Aquinus' vision and his realization that the Suma was nothing compared with meeting the Sacred Heart of Christ, why couldn't the speakers spend a little time talking about Jesus? I am longing to hear of you Jesus on Catholic radio.

Let Your Light Shine

Jesus is the light of the world living in us.  Blessed Holy Spirit teach me to let Jesus shine through my life.
