By Dom Prosper Guéranger, Posted on LifeSiteNews - We have not, as yet, reached the Feast of the divine Memorial; not until the morrow, shall we have it in all its splendor. But, this evening, at first Vespers, the Church will begin her acclamations to the Eternal Priest; and, although the Sovereign Pontiffs have not ordained that a Vigil, properly so called, shall precede the Feast of Corpus Christi, yet have they granted indulgences (Two hundred days, for the fast, or for any other good work substituted for the same, at the discretion of the Confessor.) to a voluntary fast practiced on this its eve. Let us now resume the history of the Church’s worship of the great mystery.

By Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano - Whoever loves, loves without expecting anything in return. The one who loves is happy that the Good he enjoys can be shared by the beloved. Whoever loves does not have half measures: he loves totally, without reservation. Whoever loves desires the good of the beloved and thus knows how to say no. This is true to the highest degree when Love is divine, when the Love of the Father for the Son and of the Son for the Father is so perfect and infinite as to be the Third Person of the Most Holy Trinity, the Holy Spirit Paraclete.

By Michael Pakaluk, The Catholic Thing - How precisely might someone go about showing that he had authority, mastery, and power over substances?   Bear with me: this is an important question... It’s a curious fact about the human imagination that we are slow to extend miraculous power indefinitely.  Someone who, for instance, had the power to cure a leper instantaneously, logically also has the power to restore sight to the blind, instantaneously.
