186. Closer to Jesus
We are invited to conversion, to live a meaningful relationship with God and to love the world: “Let the words of my mouth meet with your favor, keep the thoughts of my heart before you, Lord, my rock …More
“Let the words of my mouth meet with your favor, keep the thoughts of my heart before you, Lord, my rock and my redeemer.” Psalm 19, verse 15
And give back to my heart its freshness of youth!
Let’s convert, that is to say, be closer to Jesus, our shining Sun, and we’ll be ourselves in his Spirit and in his Life:
“Whenever a person turns to the Lord the veil is removed. Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
All of us, gazing with unveiled face on the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, as from the Lord who is the Spirit.” 2 Corinthians, chapter 3, verses 16 to 18
All means of conversion are good, since they unite us more to the Lord and to the neighbor. We will live a progression in faith. Jesus will be happy to tell us: “Follow me”.
It's like he's saying, “Learn to let go of what's hurting you and follow …More

The Summa of Theology of Saint Thomas Aquinas volume 1
QUESTION 55 — THE MEDIUM OF ANGELIC KNOWLEDGE 1. Do angels know all things by their substance or by species? 2. Supposing that it is by species, are these connatural to them, or are they received from …More
1. Do angels know all things by their substance or by species?
2. Supposing that it is by species, are these connatural to them, or are they received from things?
3. Do the higher angels know by more universal species than the lower angels?
Article 1 — Do angels know all things by their substance or by species?
Objection:
1. It seems that the angels know all things by their substance. Dionysius indeed says: “The angels know what is on earth according to the proper nature of their spirits. ” Now the nature of the angel is his essence. The angel therefore knows things by his essence.
2 . Aristotle says that “in immaterial beings, the knower and the known are one and the same thing.” Now, it is the medium of intellection which makes the known object and the knowing subject one and the same thing. Therefore, in immaterial beings like angels, the medium of intellection is the very substance of the knowing subject. 3 . Everything that is in another …More

The idea came from Ruby Galatolo, who was shocked by homosexual propaganda in a Florida supermarket in June 2023. She started a poster campaign that quickly spread across the USA.
The Austrian TFP adopted this campaign, showing images of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in the three cities of Vienna, St Pölten and Linz.
The line on the poster reads: "The month of June is dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus!

Francis Blesses the Friars!
SAINT FRANCIS OF ASSISI died the evening of Oct. 3, 1226. But shortly before his death, Francis appeared in silent testimony of the work of his glorious son, Anthony of Padua. During the last days of September the friars had assembled at Arles for a Chapter. Anthony preached, taking as text, "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews."
In the midst of Anthony's sermon, one of the friars noticed the presence of St. Francis in the room. The Seraphic Saint, suspended in air, stood with hands raised in blessing over the friars assembled there in solemn session. At that moment all present were filled with a great peace, so that they wondered what had happened. When the friar told of the vision he had seen, they knew that Francis had come to bless especially the work of Anthony, their conferere. He would truly be the Ark of the Testament and the Hammer of Heretics.

From the doctrine of Jesus Christ, by the R.-P. Jean-Joseph Surin
Extract from the SPIRITUAL CATECHISM OF CHRISTIAN PERFECTION, VOLUME I, Composed by RPJJ SURIN, of the Society of Jesus: On the doctrine of Jesus Christ What does the doctrine of Jesus Christ consist of? …More
On the doctrine of Jesus Christ
What does the doctrine of Jesus Christ consist of?
In eight main articles, which this divine Savior proposed to the world in his first Sermon. They are commonly called the eight Beatitudes; and these are poverty of spirit, tears and sorrow, meekness, purity of heart, hunger and thirst for righteousness, mercy, a peaceable spirit and the love of persecutions.
What is poverty of spirit?
In three things. 1. To the general abandonment of all temporal goods. 2. To use earthly things in moderation. 3. In a deprivation of spirit, which goes so far as to possess nothing with attachment, not even its knowledge, its enlightenment and its spiritual tastes; in order to be free, free from everything, following these words of Our Lord: Whoever of you does not renounce everything he possesses cannot be my disciple .
What are the tears and sadness of …More
