The Book Of Life

“The Rosary is the book of the blind,Bishop Fulton-SheenRosary where souls see and there enact the greatest drama of love the world has ever known; it is the book of the simple, which initiates them into mysteries and knowledge more satisfying than the education of other men; it is the book of the aged, whose eyes close upon the shadow of this world, and open on the substance of the next. The power of the Rosary is beyond description. ”

                       ~Fulton J. Sheen

 

 

For Reflection:
Given the categories of individuals Archbishop Sheen describes in this quote, what attributes or virtues describe them as they pray the Rosary. Into which category do I fit most readily? To what extent have I emulated all of them?

New Testament  Background  page 17

So Jesus is a king, and He has a kingdom.  But remember what we said earlier, that a king received his throne from his father.  So, if Jesus received His throne from His Father, then His Father must also have been a king.  Look at 1 Samuel 8:4-7. You will notice that God was the King over Israel, and when the people of Israel rebelled against Him, He allowed them to have an earthly king to govern them.
