Charity Has to Be Universal

6/26/2023

0 Comments

 
Picture
June 26th is the feast day of the Lebanese Blessed Jacques the Capuchin. His spirituality was based on the cult of the Cross, devotion to the Virgin Mary, and unlimited trust in Divine Providence. A giant in charity who was recognized by both religious and civil authorities. 

Blessed Jacques: “Charity has to be universal, which means we have to love everyone, because all are children of God; all have been redeemed by the Savior’s precious Blood; all are temples of the Spirit; all are called to praise God in heaven for all eternity. The human race is one family.”

A Man Who Sees a Dimension Beyond This Life

Painting of St Anthony the Great in The Louvre in Paris
Today, January 17, is the Feast of Saint Anthony the Great, Father of Monks. May his prayers be with us.
"The monk is a man who sees a dimension beyond this life. He sees the next life with the eyes of faith and passionately anticipates eternity on this earth. “At the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage …there is no male or female…” This describes the next life, but the monk experiences it now." An excerpt from the article: “Monastic Life in the Church” by Father Edmond Khashan O.L.M.
