This is the day the doves returned,
The greatest day on earth,
The day the stone was overturned,
The sign of man’s rebirth.

The Real Marriage
January 30th, 2010
The incomparable benefit of faith is that it unites the soul with Christ as a bride is united with her bridegroom. By this mystery, as the Apostle teaches, Christ and the soul become one flesh. And if they are one flesh and there is between them a true marriage–indeed the most perfect of all marriages, since human marriages are but poor examples of this one true marriage–it follows that everything they have they hold in common, the good as well as the evil. Accordingly the believing soul can boast and glory in whatever Christ has as though it were its own, and whatever the soul has Christ claims as his own. Let us compare these and we shall see inestimable benefits. Christ is full of grace, life, and salvation. The soul is full of sins, death, and damnation. Now let faith come between them and sins, death, and damnation with be Christ’s, while grace, life, and salvation will be the soul’s; for if Christ is a bridegroom, he must take upon himself the things which are his bride’s and bestow upon her the things that are his. If he gives her his body and very self, how shall he not give her all that he is? And if he takes the body of the bride, how shall he not take all that is hers?

Best of all, Christmas means a spirit of love, a time when the love of God and love of our fellow men should prevail over all hatred and bitterness, a time when our thoughts and deeds and the spirit of our lives manifest the presence of God.

What Happened to Christmas?
March 22nd, 2009
What happened to the Christmas that I loved so much? We celebrated the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ. It was to Him that we gave the presents on that wonderful day, Just rejoicing in Him and loving our family and friends. This was what I was taught and wonder where it got lost.
The Bearer Of Burdens
March 20th, 2009
A long-ago legend has it that, there once lived a man of towering strength, a giant of a man. He was a pagan whose strength perhaps led him to believe that he needed no higher power.
