"...Whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eter nal life." ~ John 3:16

A man was sleeping when the Savior appear ed. The LORD told him there was work to be done, and showed him a massive rock which he was to push with all his might. For many years the man toiled . The Adversary sensed his despair and placed thoughts into his weary mind: "You are never going to move it." "Why kill myself over this?" the man tho ught. He decided to make it a matter of prayer and take his troubled though ts to the LORD. "I have labored long and hard in Your service. Yet, I have not budged that rock by half a millimeter. Why am I failing?" The LORD res ponded compassionately, "When I asked you to serve me, your task was to p ush against the rock with all your strength. Never once did I mention that I expected you to move it. And now you come to me, thinking that you have failed. But now you are strong and muscled. Through opposition your abiliti es now surpass that which you used to have. Your ...

"If there is a poor man among your brothers... do not be har dhearted or tightfisted toward him." ~ Deuteronomy 15:7

Th e parable of the rich man and the poor man (Luke 16:19-31) inspired the sti rring homily of Pope John Paul II at Yankee Stadium in 1979. He said, "We cannot stand idly by, enjoying our own riches and freedom if, in any plac e, the Lazarus of the 20th century stands at our doors... The rich man and the Lazarus are both human beings, both of them equally created in the im age and likeness of God, both of them equally redeemed by Christ." ~ Mark Link, S.J.

What caused the rich man to be condemned? How have your values changed since you became a Knight? How do you think God might want t hem to change some more?

"The poor of the United States and of th e world are your brothers and sisters in Christ. You must never be content to leave them just the crumbs of the feast. You must give your substance, and not just of your abundance." ~ Pope John Paul II

"When you pray and ask for something, believe that you have received it, and you will be given whatever you ask for." ~ Mark 11:2 4

Jim Johnson was sent to save a failing hotel. The situation was so bad that Jim decided upon desperate measures. Each night he drove to a hil l overlooking the hotel. He parked, sat in the car, and prayed for twenty minutes. He prayed for the hotel guests, behind the lighted windows. He p rayed for the employees and their families. He prayed for himself.

G radually, changes started to take place in the hotel. A new spirit radiate d from its employees. Hew warmth greeted each new guest. Hope permeated the operation. Within a year, the hotel was back on its feet.

N orman Vincent Peale, who tells the story, ends with this thought: If the prayer of one person could revitalize a hotel, think what the prayer of an entire nation could do for the world. ~ Mark Link, S.J.

"The LORD gives strength to his people." ~ Psalm 2 9:11 NIV

The Polish bishop and martyr, St. Stanislaus, spent seven years studying canon law and theology. He earned a doctorate, but he refu sed it out of humility. When his parents died, Stanislaus gave away his in heritance, and was ordained a priest.

Stanislaus' great eloquence a nd piety generated a spirit of renewal and conversion in the local communit y. When he became bishop in 1072, Stanislaus soon found himself embroiled in political affairs. He was outspoken in his attacks upon political and so cial injustices of the immoral King Boleslaus II, who warred with his neig hbors and oppressed the peasantry. In 1079, the bishop excommunicated Bole slaus. The enraged king ordered his soldiers to murder Stanislaus; when th ey refused, he killed the bishop with his own hands while Mass was being c elebrated. Because of Stanislaus' popularity, King Boleslaus was forced to flee to Hungary, where he's said to have spent the ...

When they walked in, only six other people were there. To a person, howev er, they stood up and applauded the Shula family.

As the Shu las sat down, a man came running up and shook the famous coach's hand. "Ho w did you recognize me?" Shula asked him. "Mister, I don't know who you ar e," he replied.
