"God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not die but have eternal life." ~ John 3:16

A boy was born with on eye defect. He could see clearly o nly nearby objects. When the school told his parents that he needed glasses , they ignored it, saying "We didn't need glasses wen we were kids. Why s hould he?"

When the boy grew up, he went to a doctor. After fitting him with glasses, the doctor told him to look outside. "Wow!" the boy gas ped. "It's so beautiful!" Later, he told Father John Powell about the epis ode saying: "That was the second most beautiful experience of my whole life ." Naturally, Father Powell asked him: "What was the most beautiful experi ence?"

He said, "When I came to believe in Jesus and saw that God i s truly my Father... and felt the warmth of His Love. ~ A Reason to Live ! A Reason to Die, excerpted

"Every husband must love his wife as himself." ~ Ephesia ns 5:33

Andy was married to a girl named Kim, and things weren't go ing well. He consulted a lawyer who had known him since he was a boy. After explaining the problem, he asked the lawyer to prepare separation papers. The lawyer peered over his glasses at Andy, whom he knew better than Andy thought.

He advised Andy to wait six months. In the meantime, he s hould call her from work on occasion, bring home small gifts, and take he r to dinner on special days. Then go through with the separati on. That'll show her what a mistake she made. Reluctantly, Andy agreed.

Six months later, the lawyer ran into Andy on the street and said, " Your papers are ready." Andy replied, "I intended to call you. I've decide d not to separate from Kim. You wouldn't believe how she has changed since I last saw you." ~ Mark Link, S.J.

Guess who changed - the Knight o r the Lady? How might this story apply to your life...

"Parents, do not treat your children in such a way as to ma ke them angry. Instead raise them with Christian discipline and instruction ." ~ Ephesians 6:4

General Douglas MacArthur led the Allies to v ictory over Japan in World War II. He once said, "By profession I am a sol dier and I take pride in that fact. But I am prouder - infinitely prouder - to be a father. soldier destroys in order to build; the father onl y builds, never destroys. The one has the potentiality of death; the othe r embodies creation and life... It is my hope that my son, when I am gone , will remember me not from the battle but in the home repeating with him o ur simple daily prayer, "Our Father...." ~ Courtney Whitney, MacArthur: Rendezvous With History

How can I carry the spirit behind Knightly fraternity into my family relationships?

"Humble yourselves before the LORD, and he will lift you up ." ~ James 4:10

General Washington carried with him, in his fie ld notebook, twenty-four pages of personal prayers he had handwritten. The following is his prayer for the United States of America:

"Almighty God, we make our earnest prayer that Thou wilt keep the United States in Thy Holy protection; and Thou wilt incline the hearts of the citizens to c ultivate a spirit of brotherly affection and love for one another, particu larly for their brethren who have served in the field. And finally that Tho u wilt most graciously be pleased to dispose us all to do justice, to love mercy, and to demean ourselves with that charity, humility, and pacific temper of mind which were the characteristics of the Divine Author of our blessed religion, and without a humble imitation of whose example in these things we can never hope to be a happy nation. Grant our supplication, we beseech Thee, through Jesus Christ our LORD. Amen."

"When you help a needy person, o it in such a way tat even your closest friend will not know about it." ~ Matthew 6:3-4
< br>The New York Times ran an amazing story. St. Jude's Childre n's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, get hundreds of donations - large and small - daily. One day they received a plain envelope with no ret urn address. Inside was a McDonald's Monopoly Sweepstake's ticket for a $1 million "Instant Winner."

St. Jude's called McDonald's. Officials ca me with a representative of the Arthur Anderson accounting firm. After chec king the board with a jeweler's eyepiece, he declared it a winner. McDonal d's and St. Jude officials agreed to respect the donor's apparent desire to remain anonymous. They made no effort to find out who it was. ~ Mark Link , S.J.

"You are like light for the whole world.... Your light must shine before people."~ Matthew 5:14, 16

A teacher asked her stu dents, "What if an incredible explosion destroyed all life on earth except for those of us in this classroom? Where would the Church be? They thought a minute. Then a boy said, "It would be in this room. We would be the Chu rch."

This story makes an important point. The Church is not a place where people gather. It is the people who gather. To have Church we must g ather. It's like the bread that we use for the Eucharist. Hundreds of grain s of wheat must be gathered to make it. In a similar way, only by gatherin g do we make the risen Christ visible in today's world.

Jesus assured us, "Where two or three come together in my name, I am there wit h them." ~ Mark Link, S.J.

What can we as Knights do to unify our p arish and the Catholic Church?
