St. Emily de Vialar, pray for us!!
This is a great web site - http://www.creativeminorityreport.com/- for those who believe in the Catholic faith, those who question it, and those who do not believe in anything.
1 Peter 4:8-11
Let your love for one another be constant, for love covers a multitude of sins. Be mutually hospitable without complaining. As generous distributors of God's manifold grace, put your gifts at the service of one another, each in the measure he has received. The one who speaks is to deliver God's message. The one who serves is to do it with the strength provided by God. Thus, in all of you God is to be glorified through Jesus Christ.
(Taken from the June Magnificat, pgs 248-249)
It is written: "As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bend before me, and every tongue shall give praise to God." (Rom 14:11)
All creation sings praise to God simply by being fully what the Creator intended. Obedience to God's designs is in itself an act of worship. Worship without obedience is merely hollow flattery. Yet both worship and obedience are less than Christian if they do not spring from the one root, love of God.
(Taken from the June Magnificat, pgs 250-251)
In teaching us to pray, Jesus says, "Do not babble like the pagans who think they will be heard because of their many words." God listens to us when we pray because we belong to him. That is why the Lord teaches us to pray, "Our Father." Through our obedience to this command, we discover how much the heart of the Father is turned toward his sons and daughters.
