Plain Catholics in the Mountains and Valleys: Practical and Happy

Rejoice in hope; endure in affliction; persevere in prayer. Romans 12:12

Prayer joined to sacrifice constitutes the most powerful force in human history.
St. John Paul II

I have a mustard seed; and I am not afraid to use it. (Habeo granum sinapis quod uti non timeo)
Pope Benedict XVI

But I feel the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a direct war, a direct killing, direct murder by the mother herself."
St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Practical and Happy

A most blessed and Happy Thanksgiving to you all! We are most grateful for our loving and merciful God who patiently tends to us in our walk in spite of our manifold faults and failures. We can always get up again once we fall and Jesus will dust us off and help us along our way.

I want to recommend to one and all an excellent source for integrating our Faith with our daily walk. It is called "Ask a Carmelite Sister". She has wonderful advice about how to be charitable in speech; our prayer life; and dealing with those who commit offenses against the Faith. Here is the link and I pray all have a grace-filled Thanksgiving and Advent!
