Thanksgiving
I have so much to be thankful for.  Frankly, we should thank our God everyday for each and every breath we take and for every beat of our heart as they are gifts from God.  We should also thank Him for the trials that come into our life as we know that “all things work for good for those who love God and are called according to His purpose.”  Rom. 8:28 May we also remember those who are lost in this world - those without Christ.  Those whose sins are causing the wrath of God to abide on them.

I have been thinking and praying these days regarding what is to come when bub arrives. Especially in the area of ministry but somehow the hardest part seems to be battling against a voice speaking that tells me to be realistic and not idealistic. Kel and I prayed for a while before we eventually submitted to God to start trying for our family. It was, to us a big decision to make and we were rather apprehensive initially. Not just with regards to how we are going to cope as first time parents,

a quick look at the Vedas

Veda means essentially "sacred knowledge". ****Joke of the day**** Q: How was the word Atheism defined by the ancient Vedic Priests? A: Atheism. n. 1. Atheism can be described as the spiritual turd dropped from the backside of futuristic ghosts who have consumed too much soul food prepared by the chefs indoctrinated at ARIASI; the Ayn Rand Institute for Aristotelean Scriptural Interpretation. (Sorry, I couldn't resist. Anyway, have a super nice Thanksgiving if you celebrate it. If not, consider yourself thanked for whatever you do.)

EWTN - Sister Faustina - The Promise of Mercy - Part: 1 of 3

EWTN - Sister Faustina - The Promise of Mercy Part: 1 of 3 PROMISE OF MERCY (A) This documentary tells the story of Blessed Sister Faustina and how Our Lord gave to her the devotion to the His Divine Mercy and asked her to promulgate it throughout the world. Background of the Divine Mercy Devotion --------------------------------------- From the diary of a young Polish nun, a special devotion began spreading throughout the world in the 1930s. The message is nothing new, but is a reminder of what the Church has always taught through scripture and tradition: that God is merciful and forgiving and that we, too, must show mercy and forgiveness. But in the Divine Mercy devotion, the message takes on a powerful new focus, calling people to a deeper understanding that God's love is unlimited and available to everyone � especially the greatest sinners. The message and devotion to Jesus as The Divine Mercy is based on the writings of Saint Faustina Kowalska, an uneducated Polish nun who, in obedience to her spiritual director, wrote a diary of about 600 pages recording the revelations she received about God's mercy. Even before her death in 1938, the devotion to The Divine Mercy had begun to spread. The message of mercy is that God loves us � all of us � no matter how great our sins. He wants us to recognize that His mercy is greater than our sins, so that we will call upon Him with trust, receive His mercy, and let it flow through us to others. Thus, all will come to share His joy. It is a message we can call to mind simply by remembering ABC. A � Ask for His Mercy. God wants us to approach Him in prayer constantly, repenting of our sins and asking Him to pour His mercy out upon us and upon the whole world. B � Be merciful. God wants us to receive His mercy and let it flow through us to others. He wants us to extend love and forgiveness to others just as He does to us. C � Completely trust in Jesus. God wants us to know that the graces of His mercy are dependent upon our trust. The more we trust in Jesus, the more we will receive. The Divine Mercy Devotion Devotion to The Divine Mercy involves a total commitment to God as Mercy. It is a decision to trust completely in Him, to accept His mercy with thanksgiving, and to be merciful as He is merciful. The devotional practices proposed in the diary of Saint Faustina and set forth in this website are completely in accordance with the teachings of the Church and are firmly rooted in the Gospel message of our Merciful Savior. Properly understood and implemented, they will help us grow as genuine followers of Christ. Merciful Heart There are two scriptural verses that we should keep in mind as we involve ourselves in these devotional practices: 1. "This people honors me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me" (Is 29:13); 2. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy" (Mt 5:7).
