The Words of Jesus of Nazareth

Faith that Moves Mountains

According to your faith, so you will receive.

V

Abba, Father, Lord God, humble and thankful I ask how? By faith! In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.

After you have made a decision that is pleasing to God, the Devil may try to make you have second thoughts. Intensify your prayer time, meditation, and good deeds. For if Satan’s temptations merely cause you to increase your efforts to grow in holiness, he’ll have an incentive to leave you alone.

— St. Ignatius of Loyola

Sirach 50:22-24

22  And now bless the God of all, who in every way does great things; who exalts our days from birth, and deals with us according to his mercy.  23  May he give us gladness of heart, and grant that peace may be in our days in Israel, as in the days of old.  24  May he entrust to us his mercy! And let him deliver us in our days! 
Psalm 138:1-5

2  I bow down toward thy holy temple and give thanks to thy name for thy steadfast love and thy faithfulness; for thou hast exalted above everything thy name and thy word.  3  On the day I called, thou didst answer me, my strength of soul thou didst increase. 
1 Corinthians 1:3-9

3  Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.  4  I give thanks to God always for you because of the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus,  5  that in every way you were enriched in him with all speech and all knowledge —  6  even as the testimony to Christ was confirmed among you —  7  so that you are not lacking in any spiritual gift, as you wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ;  8  who will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.  9  God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. 
Luke 17:11-19

11  On the way to Jerusalem he was passing along between Sama’ria and Galilee.  12 And as he entered a village, he was met by ten lepers, who stood at a distance  13  and lifted up their voices and said, "Jesus, Master, have mercy on us."  14  When he saw them he said to them, "Go and show yourselves to the priests." And as they went they were cleansed.  15  Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice;  16  and he fell on his face at Jesus’ feet, giving him thanks. Now he was a Samaritan.  17  Then said Jesus, "Were not ten cleansed? Where are the nine?  18  Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?"  19  And he said to him, "Rise and go your way; your faith has made you well."

The Pontiff in Winter: Triumph and Conflict in the Reign of John Paul II By John Cornwell Narrated by John Lee – Pope John Paul II is one of the most famous and influential political figures of the world. Now, best-selling author and journalist John Cornwell has written an accessible and provocative portrait of this highly charged figure, focusing primarily on the last five years and the major world events, and scandals within the Church that have impacted the papacy. The result is a thoughtful assessment of John Paul II’s legacy to the Church. In an age when many people see the Catholic Church as an institution in crisis, Cornwell raises the level of debate by posing difficult questions; chief among them is the effectiveness of a system that grants lifetime power to an individual vulnerable to the vicissitudes of aging and illness.
