To Believe ~ To Suffer

1/23/2019

 
Picture
​Our vowed life is a life lived in imitation of Christ's life. Fr. Louis Colin writes about religious life, "Devised by the sovereign Wisdom, from all eternity, proposed by the Master to His disciples, it is one of the exquisite fruits of the Redemption: a vigorous and immortal offshoot growing at the very foot of the Tree of the Cross, watered and nourished by the Blood of Jesus."

One Thing

1/8/2019

 
Picture
For each Sister, God's Holy Will is made manifest in a specific way, distinct and different from every other Sister. Yet in the diversity of labors, big and small, there is in reality only One Thing: God. The individual tasks are undertaken for the sole reason that they are God's manifestation of His Will, the way in which He desires that particular Sister to serve Him on that particular day. 
Intimacy with the Lord is not a matter of physical kinship; rather, it is achieved by cheerful readiness to do the will of God. 
St. Basil the Great
There is a general rule concerning all special graces granted to any human being. Whenever the divine favor chooses someone to receive a special grace, or to accept a lofty vocation, God adorns the person chosen with all the gifts of the Spirit needed to fulfill the task at hand. ~ St. Bernardine of Siena​

Monthly Devotion: The Most Holy Name of Jesus

1/3/2019

 
Picture
The month of January opens with the day upon which our Savior received His most Holy Name, which day is promptly followed by the liturgical celebration of the sweetness and power of His Name. We are still basking in the glow of Christmastide, our meditation still focused closely upon the creche, learning from Mary and Joseph to silently contemplate our Salvation, when the Church reminds us to dwell upon His precious Name. With the revelation of His Name, He reveals His desire to save us, His yearning for us to call upon Him, His desire to come to our aid. Our Community custom during this time is to invoke His sweet name throughout the day, praying, "Most Holy Name of Jesus, save us!"
