Freedom Through Truth: Mercy for Max leads to Mercy to the Max
http://freethroughtruth.blogspot.com/2015/06/mercy-for-max-leads-to-mercy-to-max.html
Wednesday, June 24, 2015. Mercy for Max leads to Mercy to the Max. Life behind the stone walls of a prison compound is not a cakewalk, nor is it expectedto be. For one who has been wrongly accused it provides plenty of opportunity to throw pity parties and even to rail at God or those who failed to exonerate him, or the prison system, if one so chooses. Compassion matters to God. This is the time for service, not self-centeredness. Cancel the pity party. Love the people God brings to you....2 Corinthians...

Freedom Through Truth: January 2015
http://freethroughtruth.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 2, 2015. My Soul Doth Magnify the Lord. As I was contemplating on what to write for a guest posting at These Stone Walls. That appeared recently, I had many thoughts and wrote many drafts until finally settling on the version that was published. The topic of the posting was my own Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, which I had completed earlier in the year, in part inspired by Father Gordon MacRae of These Stone Walls. Father Gordon, in a recent posting wrote. Often, non Cathol...

Friday, November 21, 2014. Feast of the Presentation of Mary. Today the Church celebrates the Presentation of Mary, the one who was to bear the Christ in her body. Here is an excerpt from a sermon of St. Augustine and what follows it in the Office of Readings for today. From a sermon by Saint Augustine, bishop. Sermo 25,7-8: PL 46, 937-938). She who believed by faith, conceived by faith. Stretching out his hand over his disciples, the Lord Christ declared:. Now listen and see if the words of Scripture do...

Freedom Through Truth: March 2015
http://freethroughtruth.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 15, 2015. Father Gordon MacRae, the Sorrowful Mysteries and the Big Picture. Father Gordon MacRae has been a prisoner in the New Hampshire State Prison for Men for over 20 years, based on false accusations of sexual abuse that netted his accuser over $200,000, while sentencing an innocent Catholic priest to up to 67 years in prison. It struck me that Father Gordon has entered into the Passion and Death of Our Lord and Saviour, and is on his own journey to Calvary to meet Him. God has so...

Freedom Through Truth: September 2014
http://freethroughtruth.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 14, 2014. The Parable of the Prisoner. There once was a little boy, born in a far off land. While he was still very young, his mother left him and moved to a distant country, and he was placed into the prison of abandonment. And the Father wept for His little beloved. The little boy was taken in by family, but was put to work at a very early age, and so received no formal education. He was placed in a prison of ignorance. And the Father wept for His little beloved. Finally, he escaped a...

Freedom Through Truth: October 2014
http://freethroughtruth.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 1, 2014. Women Who Touch the Heart of Father Gordon MacRae. Father Gordon MacRae, the author of the very Catholic These Stone Walls. Blog, a priest falsely imprisoned for over 20 years is, in my opinion, a man's man. But, to call him just that would be to limit him, and as we have come to know, if prison walls do not limit his reach into the world, then who would we be to attempt to describe him in limiting terms? Miriam: “If I did that it would mean I gave up. It’s not...Miriam Ibrahi...

Freedom Through Truth: Transfiguration, You and Me
http://freethroughtruth.blogspot.com/2015/03/transfiguration-you-and-me.html
Wednesday, March 4, 2015. Transfiguration, You and Me. Transfiguration is by definition "a complete change of form or appearance into a more beautiful or spiritual state.". Father Gordon MacRae, a spiritual adviser, if not director, for many, through the wonders of the internet, a medium that he has never had direct access to, reminds us of transfiguration once again this Lent in his latest posting " A Transfiguration Before Our Very Eyes. Over at These Stone Walls. In it I said:. When Christ was transfi...

Freedom Through Truth: The Flight Into Egypt
http://freethroughtruth.blogspot.com/2014/12/the-flight-into-egypt.html
Saturday, December 27, 2014. The Flight Into Egypt. We know that some time later, Mary and Joseph fled to Egypt with the baby Jesus to protect Him from Herod's rage against the little children. Mary shares with us her thoughts about the events of the exile at Locutions.org. March 31, 2012. 300 An Exile of Protection. Remember for later that Mary heard the voice of God the Father calming her and instructing her about the future. Like Mary, so many of us live in exile in our lives. Our sin has sepa...Consi...
