Our faith is a step. We have to reflect on that often. This virtue of faith will not eternally remain. Faith is going to disappear before the vision of God. When we see God, faith will end. We will no longer need to believe, we will no longer need testimony, we will be face to face with the reality. * 12:00 – praying The Angelus. * 17:00 – prayerfully reading The Athanasian Creed * 18:00 – praying The Angelus, followed by today's Evening Devotion, (Psalm 143), 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.

So it is not we who decide what we have to believe, but we look for what the Church tells us. She tells us first of all through the professions of faith, the Nicene Creed, the Athanasian Creed, then through the dogmatic councils, and finally through everything that has been solemnly and infallibly taught by the magisterium of the Church. That is the unity we have to cling to. The pope, bishops, priests have the authority for keeping the faith. It is the primary purpose of their authority: to profess the faith and to spread it abroad in the hearts of men. * 10:30 – Today's Morning Devotion (Psalm 84) as found in Benedictus Magazine, followed by the Canticle of Zacharius (Lk 1:68-79). * 12:00 – praying The Angelus * 17:45 – prayerfully reading The Athanasian Creed * 18:00 – praying The Angelus, followed by today's Evening Devotion, (Psalm 140), 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.

Because if the Father in engendering the Son did not give everything to His Son, the Son would be a creature, by the very fact. Since He would not be perfect, He would not be God.

We are stepping into a marvelous universe, like Moses coming up to the burning bush.

That He lives in us; that He gives us His grace, His sacraments; that He gives us Himself in Holy Communion? How is it possible? He is so far above us, and yet He takes care of us as though He had nothing to care for in the world but us” We are so dumbfounded at thinking that He who is so great, so beautiful and so perfect should take care of us in that way, that we cannot do otherwise than render Him love for love. * 12:00 – praying The Angelus * 14:50 – prayerfully reading The Athanasian Creed, * 18:00 – praying The Angelus, followed by today's Evening Devotion, (Psalm 124), 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.

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.
