Dear Souls -

Please God . . .
Let me hear Your voice
and do Your will
                     The quiet is not where you think it is, and it's not as loud as you expect.
             Your heart lies hidden in the whirlwind of everyday life . . . unless you pause and reflect.

             Yours,
                    Prudence

The Measure of Humility  


4 March 2012

Dear Souls -
"Keep both eyes open. This is the measure of humility: if a man is humble he never thinks that he has been treated worse than he deserves. He stands so low in his own estimation that no one, however hard they try, can think more poorly of him than he thinks himself. This is the whole secret of the matter."     - Saint Theophan the Recluse
                    Yours,
                    Prudence

CO = HR x SV  


17 March 2012

Dear Souls -

             Cardiac Output = Heart Rate x Stroke Volume (CO = HR x SV)


              And now you wonder,


             "What is Cardiac Output, and why do I care?"


               Cardiac Output is the volume of blood pumped by your heart each minute, every minute of every day you live. If your heart does not pump blood or your Cardiac Output is insufficient you will no longer inhabit this earth in the way you do right now (as you sit here wondering why you're reading this silliness).


               It's simple . . . just as your heart pumps blood each minute to maintain your Cardiac Output, your heart must pump Love each and every minute you exist.


                              Love God with all your heart; love your neighbor as yourself.




                                  Love
              Humility and Taking on Tank
                       
                       Yours,

                         Prudence

On Light  


5 April 2012

Dear Souls -
      Seeing light shining through darkness requires a focused eye.

      Noticing the light is a matter of choice.

      Dissecting the light, reduces it to a series of particles.

      Living in the light, is a blessing.

                    Yours,
                    Prudence

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are you when men revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for your reward is great in heaven. (Mt 5:2-12)

Peace


 


19 April 2012

Dear Souls -
"No man has understanding if he is not humble, and he who lacks humility is devoid of understanding. No man is humble if he is not peaceful, and he who is not peaceful is not humble. And no man is peaceful without rejoicing."
Saint Isaac the Syrian
