A Lesson For Others

Afghanistan

The Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops and the head of NATO are calling upon the Afghan government to release Musa Sayed, an ex-Muslim Red Cross worker who faces the death penalty for converting to Christianity. Sayed says he has suffered severe mistreatment in his Kabul jail. The nation’s constitution forbids conversions from Islam. Afghan justice department official Jamal Khan says that “the sentence for a convert is death and there is no exception”. Converts from Islam, he added, “must be sentenced to death to serve as a lesson for others.”

Theresa of Avila About the Storms Raging in the Church

Internet
The blog “happycatholic” has published a beautiful quote of Saint Theresa of Avila. Here it is: “Our prayer for those who give us light should be unceasing. With the storms that rage in the Church today, what would we do without them? If some clergy have gone bad, the good ones shine more brilliantly. May it please the Lord to keep those who lead the Church under his care. God help them that they may help us.”

" Till The Light is with you,Follow The Light and The Darkness shall not overcome you,for on such Darkness has no power " . The Miracle takes place every time the priest pronounces the words of Transubstantiation, the fruits by which The Real Eucharistic Presence of Christ is revealed depends on faith of the receipient,for it is precisely" If ye believe on My Word and hold on to It,My Father is going to love you and I and My Father ARE GOING TO COME TO YOU AND MAKE OUR DWELLING IN YOU". Every consecrated priest has the power to change the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ,Who " stands at the door and knocks" and when we open our hearts,it is then that the Holy Spirit can work in us and through us.The true lesson for others is the attitude of Musa Sayid,the Afghan whose eyes were opened to The Truth,he does not seek to save his earthly life by denying Christ,he knows very well that those living in Darkness,who seek his death " those who persecute you will actually THINK they are doing a favor to God" and he is willing to give his life joyfully,for he "had found a pearl of great treasure" and gained eternal life,humble as he is,even he does not realize the fact his place in paradise is assured among martyrs and saints.Truly,to behold Our Lord,all we have to do is kneel in reverence in His Eucharistic Presence and trust me,when the Holy Spirit manifests Himself ,we to will glow ( literally shine with that inner Light) for everyone to see.Having the Host lift Itself,fold as a petal,change into living beating heart,go through the roof of my mouth( thus becoming the spiritual ),the moment It reached my heart It spread as life giving Breath to the point I felt It carried through my veins,tingling sensation in the tips of my fingers and toes that Divine Mercy Sunday 1998; having witnessed my late husband,born Afghan moslem,who lost faith at 12 years of age and was staunch atheist for 40 years of his life,overshadowed by the Holy Spirit,shining with light,after asking a Lady ,if She really speaks to him in Polish bless himself with a sign of the cross and proclaim Christ by the words of St John,the Beloved,testifying about his own death coming back to live,being alive again,being alive in Christ that December 20 th,2005;being blessed by meeting my soul mate ( grandson of methodist preachers,brought to Catholic Church by witness of true living saint- Fr Benedict Groeschel and testimony of Scott Hahn and Marcus Grodi) whose love for Eucharist and thirst and knowledge of spiritual writings of the Fathers of the Church surpasses all those sophisticated modernist theologians - the very Pharisees of today;having shared boldly and joyfully the story of my late husband's encounterwith the Holy Spirit with his fellow country man- a simple laggage carrier,seeing the glimpse of interest,changing to distrust,than to tears of joy as he too was set free to know and love The One True God ,for when God reveals Himself even the last of His sheep " I also have other sheep which I must bring ...and I will not loose none of what My Father gave Me and NOBODY will be able to pluck them out of My hand" for " Nobody comes to the Father ,but through Me" - let the hierarchy who lacks the courage to proclaim The One True God ,foretold by the Prophets of Old Testament and revealed as The Living Word of The Living God ,the Word Incarnate,Emmanuel in The Good News of The Gospel, Revelation of God of which not even one word shall be changed :" And WHOSOEVER will dare to change or add even one iota will be taken out of The Kingdom and out of Glory and out of The Book of Life " consider Christ's warning : " If ye did not know,ye would have no sin,but ye say " We know " ,therefore your sin remains" ,echoed in Malachi 2" And now to you ,o Priests: If you do not give glory to My Name,saith the Lord of Hosts,...I will cause the dung to be spread on your faces and ye be taken away with it ..." May the Church ,drunken on blood of it's saints ( including the martyrs of today,the Catholic Orthodox Copts,who kept the Faith for two thousand years,thanks to liturgical language that sets them apart and their adherance to Nincene Creed ),going with the spirit of times,bringing the Abomination of Desolation - " How come that I should go so far away from My Altar ? " " Now ye say "We are lords,we will no longer come unto Thee " cried out Our Lord through the mouths of the prophets of old ,warning us that in the Last Days " the Wisdom will nowhere to be found" exhorting us to " Walk in the Light,so ye may become children of Light " for who walks in the Darkness does not know ,where he is going " ,the One ,Who " ...OUT OF MOUTS OF BABES FORMED A PERFECT PRAISE " : " IT IS NOT ENOUGH ,IF YOU KNOW JESUS,OR HAVE HEARD ABOUT HIM - YOU MUST B E L I E V E ON HIM TO BE SAVED " -five year old Monika Marie,awakening from deep sleep at noon August 26 th,2000 -Our Lady of Czestochowa Feast Day,the day of my fellow Poles gathered in Rome around the Holy Father John Paul II

In regards to this image, people are free to decide for themselves whether they see anything. I have never said that an image of our Lord is present in this Host. All I know is that many children from St. John Elementary School and some from the middle school interpreted this top image to be the face of Jesus. Keep in mind that the image they saw was much more pronounced or visible earlier in the day. As the day wore on, the image seemed to fade, so that even in the top image, it had diminished and by 8:30 seemed to disappear all together. No one imposed this interpretation on the children. It was something they first saw, and something they themselves concluded, and regardless if we adults see anything, I am not one to take that away from them.

The host in the picture appears to be backlit, but I assume that it isn't a photograph of the alleged miracle.

Iraq

Pope Benedict XVI may make a visit to Ur, the birthplace of the patriarch Abraham.

If I were adviser to HH, I would say there are more pressing issues and many other countries that would be more productive than going to Iraq.
