Amazed

WOMEN OF GRACE host Johnnette Williams reads from “In Conversation with God” by Fr. Francis Fernandez, She reads today’s Gospel about Jesus teaching in his home town and how the people were amazed at his knowledge. They still knew him as a carpenter and son of Mary and Joseph. They had a lack of faith. We may have this issue when talking the faith to our family when we speak the truth. They know our weakness and past. When talking to family we must speak in love and ask Our Lady to speak through us in a loving motherly way. Lead by words and deeds.

Only religion can accomplish for a modern society what tradition, reason, and empirical observation cannot. Christianity and Judaism provide the major premises of moral ...

The Perseverance of St. Francis de Sales

WOMEN OF GRACE host Johnnette Williams examines the life of St. Francis de Sales. Johnnette tells of the Saint’s temper but later became gentle in nature. How Francis developed a gentle and amiable disposition is a story in itself; he was not born a saint. By nature his temperament was choleric, fiery; little was needed to throw him into a state of violent anger. It took years before he mastered his impatience, his unruly temper. Even after he became bishop, there were slips, as for instance, when someone rang a bell before he had finished preaching. The important point, of course, is that by constant perseverance he did in time attain perfect self-mastery. Johnnette says you do not want to become friend with you dark side.
