Clear vision...

"We shall not be purified by looking at our miseries,
but by gazing on Him who is all purity and holiness."
St Elizabeth of the Trinity

"I ask to be buried next to a Tabernacle,
so that my bones, after death,
as my tongue and my pen in life,
are saying to those who pass:
There is Jesus! There it is!
Do not let Him abandoned!
Immaculate mother, San Juan, Santas Marias,
take my soul to eternal 
with the heart of Jesus in heaven." 

St Manuel Gonzalez Garcia
aka the "Bishop of the Tabernacle"

A most blessed FATHER'S DAY 
to all FATHERS!

St John Paul II, in a March 19, 1981, homily, asked,
“Where, dear father, will you be able to draw the energy
necessary to assume in various circumstances
the right attitude that your children, 
even without knowing it, expect from you?” 
He strongly advised against smothering their spontaneity or
abandoning them to a state of insecurity or loneliness.
“St. Joseph is the answer to this, he proclaimed.

"St Joseph was an ordinary sort of man
on whom God relied to do great things. 
He did exactly what the Lord wanted him to do,
in each and every event that went to make up his life."
St Josemaria Escriva
