'Like thunder that gives no notice when it's coming.'



Long have we loved Cardinal Arinze! He has such a gift of articulating truth so simply and so profoundly at the same time, and his words regarding the Holy Father's resignation are so full of wisdom and comfort for us all. His account of the announcement to the cardinals goes straight to the heart. And he never fails to make us smile.

Today

  • Remember, O Christian soul, that thou hast this day, and every day of thy life: God to glorify - Jesus to imitate - The Angels and Saints to invoke - A soul to save - A body to mortify - Sins to expiate - Virtues to acquire - Hell to avoid - Heaven to gain - Eternity to prepare for - Time to profit by - Neighbors to edify - The world to despise - Devils to combat - Passions to subdue - Death perhaps to suffer - Judgment to undergo.
