Prayer for Peace

Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy.

Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled, as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen.

Disharmony

Seek and ye shall find. Shall find the inner knowledge that makes the problems of life plain. The difficulties of life are caused by disharmony in the individual. There is no discord in My Kingdom, only a something unconquered in my disciples. The rule of my kingdom is perfect order, perfect harmony, perfect supply, perfect love, perfect honesty, perfect obedience - all power, all conquest, all success. But so often my survents lack power, conquest, success, harmony, and I think I fail in my promises because these are not manifest in their lives. These are but the outward manafestations that result from the obedience, honesty, love, order - and they come, not in answer to urgent prayer, but naturally as light results from a lighted candle.

The Nicene Creed
We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen.
We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, one in Being with the Father.
Through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven:
by the power of the Holy Spirit he was born of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered
died and was buried.
On the third day he rose again in fulfilment of the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead,
and his kingdom will have no end.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son.
With the Father and the Son he is worshipped and glorified.
He has spoken through the Prophets.
We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.
We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Hail Holy Queen

Hail holy queen mother of mercy
our life our sweetness and our hope
To you we cry poor abandoned childern of Eve
To you we send up our sighs
Mourning and weeping in this valley of tears
Turn thy most gracious advocate eyes of mercy towards us
And after this our exhile
Show us the blessed fruit of thy womb Jesus
O clement O loving O sweet virgin Mary
Pray for us oh holy mother of God so that we may be worthy of the promises of Christ
Amen

2005-05-09 [Lioness123]: remember that Catholicism pretty much IS jewdism, only with much more added to it. Remember, Jesus was a jew. But you're right that many of the religions worship the same God, but in very different ways...depending on the religion.

2005-05-09 [Bad Stone]: that was my point lioness, I'm not stupid, I know how all the religions branch out, and their beliefs and read many of their Holy texts.

2005-05-10 [Mr. Werewolf]: I agree with Lioness, "For one to be a devout person in their faith, one should believe that their religion is right and practice it daily." I could not say it better so I quoted it. While all other religions probably carry some truths we believe that our church is the right religion. I think we believe that a virtuous life can get someone to Heaven (I think, regardless of religion) but Catholicism contains the correct teachings that can be relied on...etc. Indulgences are touchy subjects, because they were sold in the ME but they are actually free (certain prayers are examples). But religious leaders should never sell forgiveness since it's not just for those who have money.

2005-05-13 [Tesa]: Great explination [Mr. Werewolf]! And it is believe by the Church, because many people don't know Christ, and God in his Divine Mercy see's their good lives and loves them very much. Catholicism is the best thing you can teach a person. My friend Jody, her family are ALL converts and she has told me many times it is the best thing her parents did for her. She's being Confirmed into the Church next Wend.!!! I am so happy for her! As I was for [Dint]!

2005-06-01 [Frosty French Fry]: is it just me or has no one talked in here for a LONG time
