Words written in red; Words of Jesus
At that time Jesus declared, "I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to babes; yea, Father, for such was thy gracious will. All things have been delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and any one to whom the Son chooses to reveal him. Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
Matthew 11: 25 – 30
But now, my poor son, the hurricane has come, and you feel you are being shaken by a force that could uproot century-old trees. But you must remain confident, for your Faith and your love cannot be uprooted, nor can you be blown from your way, if you remain in unity with the "Head".
— St. Josemaria Escriva
Abba, Father, Lord God, thankful and humble I pray that You would bless me and mine, enlarging our territory by helping us to keep eyes of faith and hearts liken to Jesus' never letting the busyness and worries under the sun rob us of the treasures store for us in Heaven; let Your hand rest upon each of us through conscious awareness of Your presence, protecting us from evil and preventing us from causing any pain. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
1 Corinthians 12:31<http://www.ewtn.com/vbible/search.asp?abbr=_1Cor&ch=12&bv1=31&ev1=31>; 13, 1-10, 13<http://www.ewtn.com/vbible/search.asp?abbr=_1Cor&ch=13&bv1=1&ev1=10&bv2=13&ev2=13>
31 But earnestly desire the higher gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way. 1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing. 4 Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful;
5 it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things. 8 Love never ends; as for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophecy is imperfect; 10 but when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away. 13 So faith, hope, love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
Psalm 25:1-5, 8-10<http://www.ewtn.com/vbible/search.asp?abbr=Ps&ch=25&bv1=1&ev1=5&bv2=8&ev2=10>

Can a Catholic Be a Democrat?<http://www.sophiainstitute.com/productdetails.cfm?sku=191> By David Carlin author of The Decline and Fall of the Catholic Church in America. That's a good question, since these days both parties endorse policies or engage in activities that contradict some or many Catholic teachings about abortion, poverty, immigration, war and peace, or other issues of life and justice. But that's not always been the case.
