  1. Jesus breathed the Holy Spirit on the apostles. Imagine the perfumed aroma of his breath, the morning blossoming of the Spirit's life.
  2. Talking to young men tonight re. sexuality, chastity, sex. Good kids desiring truth/beauty/holiness. Pray for them and all our young people.
  3. @mblumhardt Right on, Mark. Prayers. Fr. Ed
  4. God rent the sky at Jesus' baptism, a soldier Christ's heart on the cross. Rend your heart to hear God whisper: "Your heart belongs to me."
  5. Men of faith dangle a friend before Jesus. Dangle your family and friends before Jesus and they too will walk by faith, not by sight.
  6. Born of a virgin, swadded and laid in a manger, may Christ be born of your pure heart, wrapped in faith, and laid in your love of neighbor.
  7. In LA Wed. giving a workshop to Filipino priests. Renewed by their laughter, love, loyalty to Christ/Church. Pray for priests/more priests.
  8. "The truth cannot be silenced" (Blessed Rupert Meyer). Always choose Jesus: the way, truth, and life, in every moment and choice of life.
  9. It is Christ we proclaim, whether in Phil. or Den. To him be the glory. May he increase while we decrease. Pray for Den., Phil, and Chaput.
  10. To be free is not a matter of politics but of truth, to live life to the full in him in whom the fullness of God dwells. Happy 4th of July.
  11. Birth of John the Baptist, who proclaimed: Christ must increase; I must decrease. May Christ increase in your heart, mind, body, and life.
  12. Jesus breathes the Holy Spirit on the disciples. A heart cannot beat without the breath of air; it cannot love without the breath of Jesus.

  16. Today: 30th ann. of the att'pted assasination of Blessed JPII. Let's pray for peace and that the Lord raises up more and more peacemakers.
  17. As important as JPII being in heaven is that we live on earth as he taught us. He is beatified that we may be sanctified. Peace. Father Ed
