 I am a Catholic SAHM to two kids and three babies in Heaven. I like to write about Catholicism, homemaking, being a Mom, living with three mental disorders, and the like. (more?)

It turns out that the first CSS Bible study was yesterday instead of last Thursday. G and I went, and we’re very excited to be in the Bible study. Our Bible study is quite large, and we’re already having space issues in the room we’re in. We’re the youngest couple, which is fine by [...] Thank you all for your prayers about my Dad. He is getting better with regards to his pneumonia, and he sounds a lot better on the phone. Yay Dad! He’ll be able to walk me down the aisle (a couple days ago that was looking very sketchy). Still praying for that special medical intention, [...] One of my most favorite prayers: Soul of Christ, santify me. Body of Christ, save me. Blood of Christ, inebriate me. Water from the side of Christ, wash me. Passion of Christ, strengthen me. O good Jesus, hear me. Within your wounds, hide me. Never let me be separated from you. From the malignant [...] The Liturgy of the Hours is a core essential to Benedictine spirituality (along with lectio divina or divine reading – a way of reading the Bible). The Liturgy of the Hours (or, LOTH) sanctifies the day, in which people unite themselves to each other universally and to the one, true God in prayer seven [...] Some posts around the Blogosphere that I’ve been enjoying lately… * Living Catholicism has a post about the Feast of the Exaltation of the Cross, which was yesterday. He explains what it is and why it’s important for Christians. It’s our sign of salvation, our glory, and it is what Jesus has commanded us [...] Wow, I actually made it through today without swearing (apart from the sort-of habitual swears, which I caught after the fact). Thanks be to God! I’ve been doing my best to implement what Fr. L advised me to do. It’s apparent that the Good Lord has been waiting to hear from me. The best [...] Yesterday was a very good day. The line at Reconciliation was so long, I honestly thought there was something else going on. Praise God! I don’t mind waiting in line. Luckily Fr. L is good at dispensing amazing advice in a small amount of time. I received a lot of good advice from Fr. [...] The clothes shopping was a success. I ended up with a new pair of jeans that fit, three long sleeve shirts (that are so long the come down to my mid-thigh but fit well – hopefully more girls will buy them and slowly eliminate plumber’s bum), and two short sleeve shirts. So I can [...] Mass was simply amazing today. The readings all focused on humility, and why it’s important. Fr. L gave a very good homily about humility, and how it’s a “no-no” of secular society. People often think humility is low self esteem or that you’re a welcome mat. Humility, as St. Benedict says; is knowing who [...] |
