THE TRIB TIMES WILL RETURN NEXT WEEK, GOD WILLING (James 4:15). 

(Psa 27:13-14) But I believe I shall enjoy the LORD'S goodness in the land of the living.  Wait for the LORD, take courage; be stouthearted, wait for the LORD!

VIA David J. Sheehan: Rosaries for the Military

On October 20, 2010, I, Kristen Patterson, of the Fort Worth Rosary Guild, looked up Fort Hood military information and spoke to the Hospital Chaplain office.  Carolyn Martinez said they’ll take all the rosaries we can give them.  They work with the military and the wounded soldiers.

Send rosaries to:

CRDAMC Carl R.  Darnall Army Medical Center
Attn: Carolyn Martinez
Ministry and Pastoral Care
P.O.  Box 37
Fort Hood, Texas 76544 

On October 20, 2010, I called the Archdiocese for Military Services.  I spoke with David Richardson, the receptionist.  He said that black cord knotted rosaries are needed for the military men as plastic and metal break.  But I can send him all the rosaries I have and they will make it to chaplains, hospitals and pro-life groups.

Archdiocese for Military Services

Father Corapi: Blessings of the Christ Child: Eternal Truth to All

An excerpt from the book, "Letters" by Father John Corapi

"Jesus [Truth] was born in a humble stable, into a poor family.  Simple shepherds were the first witnesses to [the birth of Truth].  In this poverty Heaven's glory was made manifest...."

"To become a child in relation to God is the condition for entering the Kingdom.  For this we must humble ourselves and become little.  Even more: To become "children of God" [children of Truth] we must be "born from above" or "born of God." Only when Christ [the Truth] is formed in us will the mystery of Christmas be fulfilled in us.  Christmas is the mystery of the "marvelous exchange"

"Oh marvelous exchange!  Man's Creator [the Truth] has become man, born of the Virgin.  We have been made sharers in the divinity of Christ [the Truth] who humbled himself to share in our humanity." (Catechism of the Catholic Church #525-526; emphasis author's)

As we once again approach the beautiful time of Christmas, we see in the pure light of the Holy Spirit various facets of the same brilliant gem of God's mystery.  One of these is that Jesus, the Father's eternal and only Word, became flesh and dwelt among us.  Jesus himself told us that He is the Truth (Way, Truth, and Life).  Hence, in a mysterious way we behold the manifestation or birth of truth in a poor cave in Bethlehem.

It is of enormous importance to realize that the birth of eternal Truth took place in the most humble and poor of circumstances.  Humility is the absolute prerequisite for the clear and resonant revelation of Truth.  If we do not humble ourselves, realizing that we are nothing without God, we have no chance to recognize and comprehend the Truth, much less become one with It (Him).  No amount of money can buy the gift, no greatness of intellect can grasp that which is beyond the grasp of creatures.  Only in the humble circumstances of littleness and poverty of spirit can we ever recognize the One who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.  May He bless you this Christmas and all the days of your life with every spiritual and temporal blessing that you could ever imagine or hope for.

Ladder of Divine Ascent excerpt: Step 26- "Brief Summary on Discernment"

54. If anyone is weak in body and has had some grave falls, he should take the road of humility and the qualities that belong to her, for he will find no other way to salvation.
