"The
Church has ever proved indestructible. Her persecutors have failed to
destroy her; in fact, it was during times of persecution that the Church
grew more and more; while the persecutors themselves, and those whom
the Church would destroy, are the very ones who came to nothing. . .
.Again, errors have assailed her; but in fact, the greater the number of
errors that have arisen, the more has the truth been made manifest. . .
. Nor has the Church failed before the assaults of demons: for she is
like a tower of refuge to all who fight against the Devil. "
St. Thomas Aquinas - ( Credits : Quote and picture taken from a facebook page a favorite of mine FIDES QUAERENS INTELLECTUM)
on reading recent happenings in my beloved country :
The church should remain apolitical, let us remember this that WE ARE FOR JESUS and our
brethren... whatever the personal opinions of those tasked for our
spiritual betterment.. human as everybody is ..let us not forget to LOOK
FOR THE GREATER GOOD...INFLUENCE for the greater good.. to not forget
to pray and discern...to listen to the peoples pulse.. hard as it is..we
always forget Vox populi Vox Dei.. this is the country and people we now
have because weve forgotten so many things our rich culture and
traditions have and the price we have to pay on trying to conform to what and who we are
not... may peace reign under the banner of our Mother Mary in our
motherland and truth prevail... and not permanently blind us.
