Assumption-Florian Parish Bulletin
August 14, 2022
“Do you think
I have come to give you peace on Earth? No, I tell you, but rather
division.”
Luke 12:51 Many of us like to play it safe, not cause waves with our
family and friends, especially when it comes to politics and religion. We
don’t want to cause any turmoil. However, many times this is at the
expense of the truth. The truth being Jesus Christ. Too many people
are misguided because they rely on their own limited human ability to reason
and are not allowing faith in God to guide them. Form your conscience; take a
stance for life, marriage and religious liberty.

“I came to bring
fire to the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! I have a baptism
with which to be baptized, and what stress I am under until it is completed! Do
you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but
rather division!” (Luke12:49-51)

love, help me make a difference.

I will be faithful by being true to my heart.

Do Something Beautiful for God – The Essential Teachings of
Mother Teresa
August 12 – Sacrifice,
surrender, and suffering are not popular topics today. Our culture makes us
believe that we can have it all, that we should demand our rights, that with
the right technology all pain and problems can be overcome. That is not my
attitude toward sacrifice.
August 13 – God
told us, “Love your neighbor as yourself.” So first I am to love myself
rightly, and then to love my neighbor like that. But how can I love myself
unless I accept myself as God has made me? Those who deny that beautiful
differences between men and women are not accepting themselves as God has made
them, and so cannot accept and love their neighbor. They will only bring
division, unhappiness, and destruction of peace to the world.
August 14 – I
am convinced that today's youth are more generous than those of times past. Our
youth are better prepared and more willing to sacrifice to serve others.
August 15 – Don't
come to prayer looking for extraordinary experiences. Come to visit your great
friend Jesus, always present and waiting for you in the tabernacle. This is the
friendship that strengthens us to fulfill our day-to-day ordinary duties with
extraordinary love and devotion.
August 16 – If
you are successful, you will win some false friends and true enemies: Succeed
anyway.
August 17 – Stay
where you are. Find your own Calcutta. Find the sick, the suffering, and the
lonely right where you are-in your own homes and in your own families, in your
workplaces and in your schools.
August 18 – It
is much easier to conquer a country than to conquer ourselves. Every act of
disobedience weakens my spiritual life. It is like a wound letting out every
drop of one's blood. Nothing can cause havoc in our spiritual live as quickly
as disobedience.
