In the world, especially at a time like this, speak good, do good, and if you can't do either, be quiet. Being mean, disrespectful, and making someone feel bad will never bring you any good. If you see someone that is down, do your best to lift them up.
On the 4th anniversary of the canonization of #MotherTeresa of #Kolkata, the postulator of her cause for sainthood tells us why she is so relevant in today’s world. https://t.co/IgIfDf9xj9
Mother Teresa, tireless worker of charity, pray for us, so that our criterion for action might be gratuitous love, offered freely to everyone without distinction of language, culture, race, or religion.
#Gospel of the Day (Mark 6,17-29)
Herod feared John, knowing him to be a righteous and holy man, and kept him in custody. When he heard him speak he was very much perplexed, yet he liked to listen to him.

Putting the paschal mystery at the center of our lives means feeling compassion towards the wounds of the crucified Christ present in the many innocent victims of wars and violence, in attacks on life, in environmental disasters, and in poverty.
Be thankful. God supplies and refills your blessings every single moment. Freely you receive, freely you give. Be a blessing. For it is through you that He blesses others too. And as you are a blessing to others, He blesses you more.
The response to the pandemic is dual: we need to find a cure for this small which has brought the whole world to its knees and we must cure a larger virus, that of social injustice. #GeneralAudience
Think in terms of possibilities. For the blessings God gives, depend on your fortitude to go after what you want and your willingness to get them on your own. He unfolds magic without serving notice. Be always awake and ready to catch it.
Pray while waiting. God opens & closes doors as He sees fit for you to enter and leave. As often as you need lessons to grow. Keep the faith. He'll walk you through the right one.
New Zealand marks 100 days since it stamped out the spread of the coronavirus, a rare bright spot in a world that continues to be ravaged by the disease, @nickgbperry reports. https://t.co/BKhA9MRxXA
We are all in need of the Father who extends His hand to us. To pray to Him, to invoke Him, is not an illusion. Illusion is to think we can do without Him! Prayer is the soul of hope.
