    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Mar 6, 2017
     | 9,502 views

    When we have to cope for the long term, we need to implement God’s template for doing so. Distraction is a key element in this process, but needs to be viewed as part of the whole process.

    The Power of Distraction (Philippians 4:1-9) 1. The psychology professor was giving an oral test. She asked, "How would you diagnose a patient who screaming at the top of his lungs one minute, then sits in a chair weeping uncontrollably the next?"

This group of fishermen, tax collectors, reformed zealots, and farmers did know basic math; but they didn’t quite know Jesus. Mark, the evangelist, reports to us an occasion ...read more

    One of the ways that Israel stimulated a sense of gratitude and fidelity was remembering the exodus from captivity to liberation: “remember that you were once slaves...remember that it was God who liberated you and brought you to a land of promise."

    Simple Act of Gratitude is a book that tells the story of an inspiration, the writing of 365 Thank You Notes, and how John Kralik’s life was changed from a life full of debts and disasters, to learning to be grateful for the life he had. I decided that I would try this too, and so I did starting ...read more

    Fullness Of Time

     | 3,496 views

    The birth of Christ did not happen all of the sudden. From the beginning of creation, this plan of God of sending His Son into the world was revealed. In Galatians, Paul describes a moment in history when everything was in place and the stage was all set for Christ to be born.

    But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law. Galatians 4:4 What does fullness of time mean? It is like eagerly waiting for something and suddenly the time comes very appropriately. Like a ripe apple ready to be picked. In this context ...read more

    Because this is the only way we sinners can be made clean, rescued from eternal death, we draw near to Calvary and look on the crucified Savior.

    Today’s Scriptures are powerful, and that’s an understatement. The verse to memorize for understanding the Gospel, and application to our life, is “unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone”. We’ll see that presently. The context of these words is a feast, where ...read more

    In one and the same act, Judas hands Christ over to be sent to death, and Christ hands himself over in his self-giving in the Eucharist to us.

    St. Thomas Aquinas says we often remember unusual things better than familiar things because things with a weird twist make a greater impression on the mind, which is also validated by the modern neuroscience of memory. So, here are some unusual truths about the Eucharist: The customary or valid ...read more
