• A Healthy Dose of Determination

  
  
  21st Sunday Ordinary Time

  What can we learn from Christ from this particular gospel?

  1. Our determination is weak.  His is strong, so we need to share in His determination.
  2. We can't save others.  We keep trying to save others and get into trouble.  Sometimes we can take too much responsibility for others problems.  So, our Lord is teaching us that God saves; we can only help.

  That's part of what we can learn from this gospel.

• For Those in Bible Study

  A Brief Reflection

  For those involved in Bible Study - Part One

   

  Bible study is accessible to everyone, is encouraged and  is not difficult to read or understand in most cases.

  
  

  Bible study is like medicine , good for the soul.  However , every medicine comes with a caution on the label.

  Good to know what the caution is. 

  Keep in mind, the Bible is not the whole Christ.  Christ is the Word of God speaking to us through the Bible and the people of God(the Living Tradition, succession of the Apostles).  We must always be in touch with the whole Christ when we read the Bible. There are other areas of caution that may be good to know.

    If you read the bible on your own or in a bible group, maybe this little five minute message can help.

• Where is the Mother, There is Healing

  Where is the Mother, there is healing.

   

  Mary is blessed with original freedom and so is Eve.  What happened?

  May Mother help us find original freedom again, freedom for the Word, freedom for the other, freedom to love.
