The world is rotten because of silence

Posted on Thursday, April 29, 2021 by Isabelle Liberatore

A recent Facebook post shared this urgent prayer intention by one outspoken priest:

"The police are afraid to be police The priests are afraid to be priests The Christians are afraid to be Christians The Americans are afraid to be Americans God, grant us the gift of fortitude to stand up against our oppressors."

February 7
Charity is the sweet and holy bond which links the soul with its Creator: it binds God with man and man with God.
-Saint Catherine of Siena
Today's Reflection:
How beautiful! What a lovely reminder that we are linked with our Beloved. Knowing this, how can we show extra gratitude today to Him for His constant presence in our lives? How can we recognize Him wherever we go?

From The Dialogue of St. Catherine of Siena

“If you would attain the purity you ask of me, there are three principal things you must do. You must be united with me in loving affection, bearing in your memory the blessings you have received from me. With the eye of your understanding you must see my affectionate charity, how unspeakably much I love you. And when the human will is concerned you must consider my will rather than people’s evil intentions, for I am their judge – not you, but I.”

--Our Lord to St. Catherine of Siena
