Wisdom does not show itself so much in precept as in life - in firmness of mind and a mastery of appetite. It teaches us to do, as well as talk, and to make our words and actions all of a color.
- Lucius Annaeus Seneca |

12 Promises to St. Margaret Mary
Our Lord Jesus Christ made twelve promises to those who honor His Sacred Heart to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, a French nun, whom he called “the Beloved Disciple of the Sacred Heart” and the Heiress “of all Its treasures”, in the 1670’s.
In the apparitions to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, Jesus gave these twelve promises for those who are devoted to His Sacred Heart. And I quote: • I will give them all the graces necessary for their state of life. • I will establish peace in their families. • I will console them in all their troubles. • They shall find in My Heart an assured refuge during life and especially at the hour of their death. • I will pour abundant blessings on all their undertakings. • Sinners shall find in My Heart the source of an infinite ocean of mercy. • Tepid souls shall become fervent. • Fervent souls shall speedily rise to great perfection. • I will bless the homes where an image of My Heart shall be exposed and honored. • I will give to priests the power of touching the most hardened hearts. • Those who propagate this devotion shall have their names written in My Heart, never to be effaced. • The all-powerful love of My Heart will grant to all those who shall receive Communion on the First Friday of nine consecutive months the grace of final repentance; they shall not die under my displeasure, nor without receiving their Sacraments; My heart shall be their assured refuge at that last hour. "Look at this Heart which has loved men so much, and yet men do not want to love Me in return. Through you My divine Heart wishes to spread its love everywhere on earth."—Jesus |

Obama On Sochi Delegation: Of Course We Sent Open Gays There On Purpose
"There is no doubt we wanted to make it very clear that we do not abide by discrimination in anything, including discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. One of the wonderful things about the Olympics is that you are judged by your merit, how good you are regardless of where you come from, what you look like, who you love and that I think is consistent with the spirit of the Olympics," - President Obama, speaking to NBC last night.
