“The day of the Nativity of the Mother of God is a day of universal joy, because through the Mother of God, the entire human race was renewed, and the sorrow of the first mother, Eve, was transformed into joy.” —St. John Damascene

Quem vota como gado que faz parte de um rebanho, não pode reclamar quando chegar a hora do abate.
Pense, dá tempo!
Será só você e a urna!

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Today we celebrate the birth of a little girl who would be called to become the Mother of her Creator, the Mother of God. Yet, she is born simply as a little girl, like the daughters and granddaughters we hold in our arms. We bestow upon her the most exalted and noble titles, such as Our Lady and Queen, but God’s way was and remains simpler and quieter, yet no less powerful and transformative. It is the way of Jesus Himself. #NativityOfMary

Gospel of the Day ( Matthew 1,1-16.18-23)

Now this is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about. When his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found with child through the holy Spirit. Joseph her husband, since he was a righteous man, yet unwilling to expose her to shame, decided to divorce her quietly.

Such was his intention when, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife into your home. For it is through the holy Spirit that this child has been conceived in her. She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."

🙏 Santa Teresa de Calcutá, rogai por nós, para que saibamos reconhecer Jesus nos mais pobres e amá-lo com gestos concretos de cuidado e ternura!

Gospel of the Day (Luke 6,1-5)

Jesus said to them in reply, "Have you not read what David did when he and those (who were) with him were hungry? (How) he went into the house of God, took the bread of offering, which only the priests could lawfully eat, ate of it, and shared it with his companions." Then he said to them, "The Son of Man is lord of the sabbath."

A farm can have animals, land and infrastructure — and still lack profitability. Good rural management begins by understanding the business behind the production.

Dizem que vivemos em uma 'democracia'...

Um dia desses, vi um senhor reclamando que “é muita democracia para tirar um documento no Brasil.”

Dá uma boa reflexão.

"Imagine o Brasil ser dividido e o Nordeste ficar independente", só não imagine a Paraíba ficar independente, senão teremos que importar dos outros países praticamente tudo que comemos.

Maturity isn't connected to age.

Maturity is learned.

Older people have had more time to learn to be mature. That doesn't mean they've learned it.

[Vatican News @VaticanNews]

Gospel of the Day (Luke 4,38-44)

After Jesus left the synagogue, he entered the house of Simon. Simon's mother-in-law was afflicted with a severe fever, and they interceded with him about her.
He stood over her, rebuked the fever, and it left her. She got up immediately and waited on them. At sunset, all who had people sick with various diseases brought them to him. He laid his hands on each of them and cured them.

Curral eleitoral é uma região ou grupo de eleitores submetidos à influência de um político ou líder local, que consegue direcionar seus votos para os candidatos que apoia.

[Vatican News @VaticanNews]

Gospel of the Day (Luke 4,16-30)

Rolling up the scroll, he handed it back to the attendant and sat down, and the eyes of all in the synagogue looked intently at him. He said to them, "Today this scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing." And all spoke highly of him and were amazed at the gracious words that came from his mouth.

Maturity is choosing your response when circumstances aren’t yours to choose.

No supermercado é acrescentado um imposto de cerca 25% no valor dos produtos.
Na compra de carro 0km, o imposto não é de "só" 50% como dizem: a taxa cobrada representa um acréscimo em torno de 100% sobre o valor do veículo. Você paga um carro pra você e outro pro governo.

Gospel of the Day (John 1,45-51)

Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and said of him, "Here is a true Israelite. There is no duplicity in him." Nathanael said to him, "How do you know me?"

"Querendo um príncipe manter o Estado, é muitas vezes forçado a não ser bom, porque, quando a maioria, [...] da qual tu dependes para manter-te, está disposta à corrupção, convém-te seguir essa disposição para satisfazê-la e, então, as boas obras são tuas inimigas."
[Maquiavel]
