August 17th, 20th Sunday in ordinary time
This week, our church celebrates the queenship of Mary,
our mother, and we should all intercede to her to continue
to "pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of our death".
Jesus, we thank You for mom, and how You love and listen,
to Your mothers prayers and requests.
Jesus, continue to let mom be our mediator to You, so that
You can take all of our requests to the Father.
Let us all realize, that through Your love, You want to have
our prayers go to the Father, who loves us so much, but yet,
we can't really comprehend it.
oh! Jesus, You, the Triune God, loves us every day, in every way.
Grace us to adore You in return. Amen and Amen
Thank you Lord, for loving us totally.

Sunday SAVE THE CHILDREN
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?d=8/17/2008
"Lord, Son of David, have pity on me! My daughter is terribly
troubled by a demon." —Matthew 15:22
Jesus delivered many people from demons. Sometimes He
delivered children from demons (Mt 15:22, 28; Mk 9:17, 25ff).
This raises the question: How can innocent children who
could not have grievously sinned or been knowingly involved
in the occult be possessed or troubled by demons?
Children suffer innocently for the sins of their parents and the
world. This suffering seems to include even harassment from
the evil one. Sin can cause a child to be troubled by a demon,
but it might not necessarily be a result of the sins of the
parents. Sins committed by any of us can result in the
severest form of child abuse, exposing a child to demonic
influence.
Why doesn't the Lord protect children from the effect of our
sins? Why didn't He intervene and save the Holy Innocents
martyred at Bethlehem? Why doesn't He spare the children
victimized by abortion? The Lord allows us to accept the
wages of our sins (Rm 6:23). He even lets us pass on a
devastating inheritance to our children and to the children
of the world (Ex 20:5). Our unrepented sins open the door
for Satan to enter not only our lives, but also the lives of
innocent children. Repent!
Monday "I SURRENDER ALL"
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?d=8/18/2008
"The young man said to Him, 'I have kept all these;
what do I need to do further?' " —Matthew 19:20
Tuesday ENDANGERED SPECIES
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?d=8/19/2008
"I repeat what I said: it is easier for a camel to pass
through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter the
kingdom of God." —Matthew 19:24

Pope Benedict XVI, Shepherd of Truth
Notable quotations from Pope Benedict XVI and official
teachings of the Roman Catholic Church
SAINT PAUL
TEACHER, APOSTLE, AND HERALD
A teacher of the Gentiles, an apostle and a herald of Jesus
Christ, this is how he [St. Paul] described himself ...
"OPEN TO THE FUTURE"
"A teacher of the Gentiles" — these words open to the future,
to all peoples and all generations. For us Paul is not a figure
of the past whom we remember with veneration. He is also
our teacher, an Apostle and herald of Jesus Christ for us too.
"PAULINE YEAR"
Paul wants to speak to us — today. That is why I chose to
establish this special "Pauline Year": in order to listen and
learn today from him...
