139. God is here, let’s trust!
Sometimes, to come back to God, we think we have to cry out, because suffering holds us and doesn’t let us go. But we don’t have to scream. Shouting is a sign that we have gone too far. We have moved …More
Shouting is a sign that we have gone too far. We have moved away from God. God is here, let’s trust! God chases us with his Love! And his arrows are joy, peace, hope, mercy, life, love, etc.
We cry because we don’t want to live in the negation that keeps us away from God. We shout because we forgot that God is always with us. Within the walls we have created for ourselves, we believe that God is no longer there.
We locked ourselves in and closed the windows. After our cry, the storm will calm down, the dust will fall and we will have no reason to cry if we turn our heart to God.
It’s a good reflex to turn to him. Shouting is not a fault, but it’s not the end result.
The new American Bible, 2011-2014
Book: … for Love, Normand Thomas

A Volleyball Player Ends His Career
Ludovic Duée, 32, captain of Saint-Nazaire Volley-Ball Atlantique (SNVBA), is giving up his [pointless] sporting career to join the Canons of Lagrasse, near Carcassone, a community of the Roman Rite. …More
SNVBA has a significant presence in French volleyball, being the 5th national club and the 2nd regional club with a strong base of 473 members and 12 coaches.
Duée told Ouest-France.fr (24 April) that he had chosen "between a vocation and a profession". The future canon was born into a Catholic family, but his faith was awakened late in life. "I always believed in God, but I kept to the minimum," he said.
Trapped in his appartment during the Covid hysteria, he experienced loneliness, introspection and healthy existential questioning, and decided to give his life more meaning.
Founded in the 7th century as a Benedictine monastery, the Abbey of St Mary of Lagrasse was revived in 2004 by the Canons of St Augustine. The average age of the canons is 43.

Mary of Agreda about dryness in prayer - WORDS OF THE QUEEN THE VIRGIN MARY SPEAKS TO SISTER MARY OF AGREDA
Warning for the consecrated souls. "428. Before the Most High reforms or advances those, who for any reason enter the religious state, it is no more than right, that in turning away from the world they …More
"428. Before the Most High reforms or advances those, who for any reason enter the religious state, it is no more than right, that in turning away from the world they avert also their eyes from it and blot out from their memory all its images, forgetting all that they have in so praiseworthy a manner left behind. Those that neglect this requirement and are ungrateful and disloyal toward God, will doubtlessly fall under the punishment of the wife of Lot (Gen. 19,26), and if on account of the goodness of God they do not suffer this punishment in an equally open and visible manner, they nevertheless undergo it interiorly, remaining congealed and full of dryness, without fervor or advance in virtue. Forsaken by grace they thus do not attain the end of their vocation, make no progress in religion, nor find any spiritual consolation in it, and do not merit to be visited by the Lord as children, but to be left to their own resources like unfaithful and fugitive …More

Many saints have said that when it goes about the Church enemies, the worst they are afraid of are the lukewarm Catholics.
And above all, our Lord through his Angel have said the same to us in the book of Apocalipse chapter 3.:
"I know thy works, that thou art neither cold, nor hot. I would thou wert cold, or hot.
16 But because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold, nor hot, I will begin to vomit thee out of my mouth. 17 Because thou sayest: I am rich, and made wealthy, and have need of nothing: and knowest not, that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked."

Visitation, at the end I say "I bind these snow-white roses with a petition for the virtue of Charity and humbly lay this bouquet at Thy /Mary's/ feet."
Agony in the grotto of the Garden of Gethsemane, after 'our Father and Hail Marys' I say: I bind these blood-red roses with a petition for the virtue of Resignation to the Will of God, and humbly lay this bouquet at Thy feet."
One more example - Coronation of our Blessed Mother in Heaven as Its Queen, I say after the prayers "I bind these yellow roses with a petition for the virtue of Union with Thee, and humbly lay this bouquet at Thy feet."
I also ask to bind these roses with my children /and others/ for their health and salvation.
That way, even if I don't put too much feeling …More
