Fasting
is a reminder that one’s true nourishment does not come from this
world. It prophetically stands before all the world’s promises and says,
“You are not enough, there is more that I desire.” Hence, the true
nature of fasting is not the giving up of things, but creating space for
the One that matters most.

Mother Mary said at Fatima: "My Immaculate Heart will be your refuge and the sure way which will lead you to God." St. Thomas Aquinas said: "The things we love tell us who we are!" With that in mind, I will try to post each day something about Our Blessed Lady, items about the Holy Roman Catholic Church, and public domain Catholic books too! I pray you enjoy my ministry! Below are two albums of pictures that I created: 1. Our grand daughter Adrianna. 2. Tears of Mary!
