SPIRITUALITY IN MODERN TIMES

The Lord's Prayer The moment you receive it, say: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, for Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, now and forever Amen...

She approached the owner of the store in a most humble manner and asked if he would let her charge a few groceries. She softly explained that her husband was very ill and unable to work, they had seven children and they needed food. John Longhouse, the grocer, scoffed at her and requested that she leave his store at once. Visualizing the family needs, she said: 'Please, sir! I will bring you the money just as soon as I can.'  John told her he could not give her credit, since she did not have a charge account at his store. Standing beside the counter was a customer who overheard the conversation between the two. The customer walked forward and told the grocer that he would stand good for whatever she needed for her family. The grocer said in a very reluctant voice, 'Do you have a grocery list?' Louise replied, 'Yes sir.' 'O...

John 3:16- I don't understand it.  A little boy was selling newspapers on the corner, the people were in and out of the cold. The little boy was so cold that he wasn't trying to sell many papers. He walked up to a policeman and said, "Mister, you wouldn't happen to know where a poor boy could find a warm place to sleep tonight would you? You see, I sleep in a box up around the corner there and down the alley and its awful cold in there for tonight. ?Sure would be nice to have a warm place to stay." The policeman looked down at the little boy and said, "You go down the street to that big white house and you knock on the door. When they come out the door you just say John 3:16 and they will let you in."  So he did. He walked up the steps and knocked on the door, and a lady answered. He looked up and said, "John 3:16." The lady said, "Come on in, Son." She took him in and she sat him down in a split bottom rocker in front of a...

Dear Child,  Stress is really separation.  Worry is separation.  Fear is separation.  Sadness is separation.  We’re afraid because we feel alone.  We’re sad because we feel no one is there for us.  Anger and unforgiveness is also separation.  Yours truly, God  P.S.  Any movement towards separation makes us sick. But any movement towards connection makes you whole!  When you forgive, when you love, when you trust, you walk towards your healing.

DEAR GOD,  I THANK YOU FOR BRINGING ME  HERE TODAY.   THIS IS NO ACCIDENT.   YOU MEANT FOR ME TO EXPERIENCE YOUR  GREATNESS AND LOVE.

LET ME LIVE ACCORDING TO YOUR WILL   AND COMPLETE ME BY THE HOLY MASS,   THAT I REALLY PRAY FOR STRENGTH,   ENTHUSIASM, LONGINGNESS,  AND THIRST TO ATTEND WITH MY FAMILY. AMEN...
