Warning for the consecrated souls. "428. Before the Most High reforms or advances those, who for any reason enter the religious state, it is no more than right, that in turning away from the world they avert also their eyes from it and blot out from their memory all its images, forgetting all that they have in so praiseworthy a manner left behind. Those that neglect this requirement and are ungrateful and disloyal toward God, will doubtlessly fall under the punishment of the wife of Lot (Gen. 19,26), and if on account of the goodness of God they do not suffer this punishment in an equally open and visible manner, they nevertheless undergo it interiorly, remaining congealed and full of dryness, without fervor or advance in virtue. Forsaken by grace they thus do not attain the end of their vocation, make no progress in religion, nor find any spiritual consolation in it, and do not merit to be visited by the Lord as children, but to be left to their own resources like unfaithful and fugitive …More

"For through loving affection their desire has reached such union that nothing can separate it [from Me]. Every time and place is for them a time and place of prayer. For their conversation has been lifted up from the earth and has climbed up to heaven. In other words, they have shed every earthly affection and sensual selfishness and have risen above themselves to the height of heaven by the stairway of virtue, having climbed the three stairs that I symbolized for you in the Body of My only-begotten Son. At the first step they put off love of vice from the feet of their affection. At the second they taste the secret and the love of His heart and there conceive love in virtue. At the third step of spiritual peace and calm they prove their virtue, and rising up from imperfect love they come to great perfection. Thus have these found rest in the teaching of My Truth. They have found table and food and waiter, and they taste this food through the teaching of Christ crucified, My only-…More

Liam Ronan My cure for dryness /it happens to everyone/ is a way of saying Rosary and asking for virtues. From little book dated 1926 "Rosary Novenas to our Lady" I borrowed with some changes a certain way of saying the Rosary. I'll give you a couple of examples: Visitation, at the end I say "I bind these snow-white roses with a petition for the virtue of Charity and humbly lay this bouquet at Thy /Mary's/ feet." Agony in the grotto of the Garden of Gethsemane, after 'our Father and Hail Marys' I say: I bind these blood-red roses with a petition for the virtue of Resignation to the Will of God, and humbly lay this bouquet at Thy feet." One more example - Coronation of our Blessed Mother in Heaven as Its Queen, I say after the prayers "I bind these yellow roses with a petition for the virtue of Union with Thee, and humbly lay this bouquet at Thy feet." I also ask to bind these roses with my children /and others/ for their health and salvation. That way, even if I don't put too much feeling …More

@andrew24157 I have to confess that I am not certain what it means to 'say your rosary well', or fervently, or devoutly. Those terms have always made me feel that reciting the rosary every day and not 'feeling' something is to be missing something irreplaceably important. There are people who suffer from dryness in prayer; sometimes for years. Is that saying the rosary well?

The French public prosecutor has closed a case against Abbé Matthieu Raffray, a known member of the Institute of the Good Shepherd. The report against the priest was filed by an inter-ministerial office "for the fight against anti-LGBT hatred" (sic). Key phrase of the public prosecutor who refused to play 'Gaystapo': "After careful examination of the comments, no offence appears to be sufficiently serious to justify criminal proceedings against you. I am therefore closing this case." So even in decadent France, Abbé Raffray can call homosexual acts a sin and a vice. #newsXgpfdxurvb

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni announced in a video released on Friday that Francis will attend the G7 meeting in Apulia, Italy, on 13-15 June. The Vatican press office confirmed the news. Francis accepted an invitation from the Italian government to discuss artificial intelligence, about which he has no idea, he doesn't even use a computer. Meloni said that this is the first time that a pope will participate in the work of the Group of Seven. The G7's commitment, she added, "is to ensure that artificial intelligence is both human-centred and human-controlled". Of course, the G7 ministers are also committed to anti-human abortion. The June meeting will be attended by - US President Joe Biden - Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau - British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak - Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni - French President Emmanuel Macron - German Chancellor Olaf Scholz - Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida The European Union will be represented by Charles Michel and Ursula …More

From that website: Question: Are we as Catholics allowed to hate the devil? And, if so, are we allowed to hate those that are doing the devil’s work? Answer: To hate means to will evil for another person. But to will evil for another person is directly contrary to charity. Since we’re called to be charitable, it follows that we can never hate any person, including the devil. Just as God does not wish that any should perish (2 Pet. 3:9), we too cannot desire or rejoice in the eternal destruction of any intelligent being. However, this doesn’t mean we can’t hate the devil’s actions. As St. Paul writes, “Hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good” (Rom. 12:9). Question: My eight-year-old asked me, "If God loves all his creatures, then doesn't he love Satan?" I told her that God cannot love sin and that Satan is sin. Please correct me if I'm wrong and help me find an answer that an eight-year-old and I can understand. Answer: Satan is not sin. Satan is a fallen angel who chose to turn away …More
