HAPPY JPII DAY! Today is the memorial of St John Paul II (Pope from 1978-2005) who was a “witness to hope” for our generation, and for today and the future: “Do not be afraid. Open wide the doors for Christ. To his saving power open the boundaries of States, economic and political systems, the vast fields of culture, civilization and development. Do not be afraid. Christ knows ‘what is in man’. He alone knows it. “So often today man does not know what is within him, in the depths of his mind and heart. So often he is uncertain about the meaning of his life on this earth. He is assailed by doubt, a doubt which turns into despair. We ask you therefore, we beg you with humility and trust, let Christ speak to man. He alone has words of life, yes, of eternal life.” ~Saint John Paul II (October 22, 1978) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVVt-13rQwW/?utm_medium=tumblr

Beautiful sky! From yesterday evening, after 6:30pm….. Still green and still *hot* in Virginia in mid-October (81 degrees right now☀️). Cooler temperatures are on the way, though.😉 https://www.instagram.com/p/CVDyB1RKYIC/?utm_medium=tumblr

Too hot-and-humid for me to spend much time outside lately. Everything is full and lavishly grown, but if one looks around a bit, one can find some new beginnings or other idiosyncrasies of plants that have their own growing cycles.🙂🌿 https://www.instagram.com/p/CTGNl5MLKKs/?utm_medium=tumblr

Feast of Saint Bartholomew, Apostle (also known as “Nathaniel”). Perhaps he might be considered the “patron of snark” in that his response when he first heard about Jesus was, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” (John 1:43). Clearly Nazareth at that time was not exactly a “posh neighborhood.” But Bartholomew went on to preach beyond the eastern borders of Rome, in Persia and Armenia (where he suffered martyrdom). https://www.instagram.com/p/CS-ijh0LkPf/?utm_medium=tumblr

AUGUST 20: SAINT BERNARD: "In the first creation He gave me myself; but in His new creation He gave me Himself, and by that gift restored to me the self that I had lost. [Therefore] God deserves exceeding love from us, a love that has no measure… The reason is that He was first to love. He who is so great loves us so much; He loves us freely, little and poor as we are. That is why I said there should be no measure of our love for God. For since love given to God is given to the Infinite and Measureless, what measure or what limit could it have? He, the Unmeasured and Eternal God, He who is Love beyond all human knowledge, whose greatness knows no bounds, whose wisdom has no end, loves. Shall we then set a limit to our love for Him? I will love you, O Lord my strength, my rock, and my defense, my Savior, my one desire and love. My God, my helper, I will love you with all the power you have given me; not worthily, for that can never be, but to my full capacity. Do what I will, I never can discharge my debt to you, and I can love you only according to the power that you have given me. But l will love you more and more, as you see fit to give further power” (Treatise On The Love Of God, VII). https://www.instagram.com/p/CS0dtYmrzdZ/?utm_medium=tumblr

HAPPY FEAST OF SAINT BERNARD OF CLAIRVAUX (1090-1153).
