96 Job's Comforters for self-study, for stock-taking, for a clearing up, for a moral and spiritual housecleaning. P 40. - Bbe Patb ol Borrow o AWAY with penance, humility, obedience, and self-denial, and you abolish the crucifix. But so long as we retain that symbol, constantly preaching to us the story of God's sufferings; so long as we believe that He suffered not merely to make atonement for our sins, but to teach us to "fill up those things that are wanting of the sufferings of Christ" in our flesh (Col. i. 241.; so long must the spirit of self-denial remain in practlce in the Church that He has founded. The path 3f sorrow, and that path alone, Leads to the land where sorrow is unknown. 41. - 3ob7e Gomfortere ANY, like the comforters of Job, look upon all m calamity and suffering as the direct result of sin and say: "Sin, and you suffer; sin not, and you s&er not." But Christ seems to point to a higher harmony and a more profound reason, and indeed to a solution of the problem which, though it may leave something to be desired by human reason, is all satisfactory to Peason illumined by faith. "Neither this man hath sinned nor his parents, but that the works of C,od may be made manifest in him." Out of suffering comes all good, and in the providence of God it is the means of lifting man to the very pinnacle of greatness hem below and to eternal beatitude hereafter. Private Use Only
Heart and Fa~e St HEN our divine Lord sent His disciples out to a preach, one of His instructions was: "Into whatsoever house you enter, first say: Peace be to this house." Peace is a good word. It is more than a salutation; falling from the Master's lips, it is a divine benediction as well. Peace, too, is a fruit of grace, which includes all that is sweetest and divine in Chris tian culture. Christ's peace is a blessing which comes out of stfuggle and discipline. Well, therefore, does the salutation "Peace!" befit a Catholic home, which ought to be the abode of peace. 43. - beart an0 face a GOOD heart makes a good face - perhaps not beautiful or classic, but refined, sincere, and noble. The face will shine with God behind it. There are some faces even to-day that at times seem to have a glow upon them. There are faces that are quiet and uninteresting in repose, that light up amazingly with the animation of talking. There are some who can never get a good photograph, because the camera can not catch the subtle sparkle of the eye in which the whole individuality lies. There are some whom you would not at first call handsome, whose faces grow on you with constant acquaintance until they become beautiful to you. For you see the soul shining through, you see the splendor of a noble character glorifying every feature. True beauty in the soul will come out in the sweetness, the brightness, the quiet glory of the face.. More Free Items at www.catholickingdom.com
