Morning Offering given
This morning,
as I kindle the fire upon my hearth,
I pray that the flame of God’s love may burn in my heart,
and the hearts of all I meet today.
I pray that no envy or anger, no hatred or fear,
may smother the flame.
I pray that indifference and apathy, contempt and pride,
may not pour like cold water on the fire.
Instead, may the spark of God’s love light the love in my heart,
that it may burn brightly throughout the day.
And may I warm those who are lonely,
whose hearts are cold and lifeless,
so that all may know the comfort of God’s love.

No coffee, the man forgot
In the Catholic Tradition… The 3rd Station of the Eucharist… The Offering of Melchizedek… Gen 14:17-20, PS 110:4, Heb 6:20. Melchizedek was a priest of God Most High and King of Peace. Abram came to him after winning a battle. He gave Abram a blessing and brings an offering of bread & wine. There is a prophecy about the coming Messiah and later Melchizedek is referenced regarding his connection to Jesus. Jesus is not from the tribe of Levi; he is of the house of David. God sent His Son to offer His life for the sins of the World… thus he is a priest in the line of Melchizedek. He will offer the sacrifice of Himself on the cross. The night previous to his death he makes it accessible to us through a sacrifice and offering of bread and wine, in the pattern of Melchizedek.
Let us talk about premarital sex.
CCC#2353
Fornication is carnal union between an unmarried man and an unmarried woman. It is gravely contrary to the dignity of persons and of human sexuality which is naturally ordered to the good of spouses and the generation and education of children. Moreover, it is a grave scandal when there is corruption of the young.
The Church rejects premarital sex.
God created sexuality & marriage.
Intercourse is saved for the marriage bed.
Just because everyone is doing it
Does not make it right
Why would you have sex with someone
you are not willing to marry
No Catholic should allow this to happen in their home
Know you are prayed for
