Faith and reason

by

The romantic seeks only to get his head into the heavens. The rationalist seeks to get the heavens into his head – and it is his head that splits.” C.S. Lewis
 
Our Catholic Faith is “reasonable” but not rational; there is nothing in our Faith that contradicts reason. Reason can lead us to the door of the mysteries of our Faith, but only Faith can respond to the mystery.
God bless,

Light of Christ

by

“Joy, which was the small publicity of the pagan, is the gigantic secret of the Christian.” C.S. Lewis
      Christian joy reigns in those who allow the light of Christ and the love of Christ to work in them and through them.  It shows!

Avoiding Satan’s snares

by

“Life is indeed terribly complicated—to a man who has lost his principles.” C.S. Lewis
 
Small ethical concessions here and there, can eventually lead you to be completely entangled in the devil’s web. Watch and pray, and take advantage of the Sacrament of Reconciliation to free you from Satan’s snares!
God bless,

Closeness to Christ

by

“If you want to get warm you must stand near the fire: if you want to be wet you must get into the water. If you want joy, power, peace, eternal life, you must get close to, or even into, the thing that has them.” G.K. Chesterton
 
Get close to Christ’s Sacred Heart, that burning fire of love…and you will feel the change from within!
God bless,
Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
