He could have created us and left us in a certain isolation, but no! Already by our nature alone, we are created to turn toward Him; but He willed to do much more than that.

To these poor creatures, these little beings of nothing at all, that little dust that we are, God wanted to give a share in His own nature and in the intimate love which unites Him to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. It is something which we cannot understand, which surpasses our imagination, our mind, our intellect. Yet we have to meditate on it and give thanks to God. * 12:00 – praying The Angelus * 15:50 – prayerfully reading The Athanasian Creed, * 18:00 – praying The Angelus, followed by today's Evening Devotion, (Psalm 139), as found in Benedictus Magazine, followed by the Magnificat: Luke 1:46-55. * 19:00 – praying the hour of Compline for tonight according to the Traditional Pre-Vatican II Divine Office, followed by Fr.
