http://sangalala.blogspot.com/2015/07/mary-magdalene-witness-of-resurrection.html

Rejoice in the Lord, for great is his love. Wednesday, 22 July 2015. MARY MAGDALENE, A WITNESS OF THE RESURRECTION. 22 July - St. MARY MAGDALENE. Nowadays, without any fundament, some make the very strange claim that Mary Magdalene was Jesus’ wife. In the gospels, we just get these basic facts and nothing else:. She was a troubled woman. She was healed by Jesus and found peace. She became a disciple and followed Jesus. With the other women, she accompanied Jesus to Jerusalem. NOTHING MUST BE WASTED.

Nowadays, mainly in the West, celibacy has been vilified and demonised as being abnormal and unnatural, as there is a glorification of sex and sexual pleasure, seen as a supreme value that one should look for and enjoy at all costs. However, looking at human history, we can discover that in many societies celibacy, mainly for religious motives, was highly respected.

Rejoice in the Lord, for great is his love. Saturday, 27 September 2014. FAITH IS OBEDIENCE AND SURRENDER TO GOD. XXVI SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME: Mt 21:28-32.

In the parable of the two sons, one of them said yes to the father’s request, but as soon as he left his father’s presence, he ignored it completely. Many of us are very quick at saying “Yes, Lord! 8221; To shout: “Lord! 8221; does not take us anywhere.
