TAKE FIVE FOR FAITH: Daily renewal for busy Catholics 10/27/2011

Citing of the Week

"The key for all charged with religious teaching might not really be a ‘content-full’ but a ‘content-smart’ approach: identifying the one or two key things that are truly central."

Not for the faint of heart
It’s way too early to be thinking about Christmas, but it’s never too soon to remember the message of Christmas: That Jesus is Emmanuel, God-with-us. God is with us, not separated from or against us. It’s a truth Saint Paul recognized in his Letter to the Romans. “God is for us . . . . What will separate us from the love of Christ?” (Romans 8:31, 35) he asked. His answer: Nothing—no trouble or hardship or power in the world. God’s presence has already saved us; the victory is won. God is on our side and wants us to be part of the divine life forever. Let’s accept that truth!

TODAY’S READINGS: Romans 8:31b-39; Luke 13:31-35 (482)
“In all these things we conquer overwhelmingly.”
