When It All Seems Too Much

DVRodriguez2026-07-14T08:31:11-04:00

Cast all your cares upon the Lord; He will sustain you. We forget this so often because we see the evil in the world. We get anxious, overwhelmed, angry, and discouraged (all tricks of the devil). We try to push through but fail. Sometimes we hit rock bottom. God allows this to humble us, so we realize our weakness and how much we need Him. So that we run to Him, fleeing the worst of evils –one venial sin– and are prompted to do penance. When we acknowledge God is in charge of all things, then it doesn’t look so bad. [...]

Mary’s Queenship Honors the Blessed Trinity

DVRodriguez2026-07-14T07:30:44-04:00

Nothing in our holy religion more clearly reveals the great mystery of the Blessed Trinity than the Blessed Virgin Mary. She has a unique relation to each Divine Person, all Three crown her, and all creatures are subject to Mary because all are subject to Christ the King, her Son. By divine decree, Mary has been directly and intimately associated with the entire work of redemption. To deny or denigrate this association is an attack upon the Blessed Trinity. She made perfect use of all the graces God gave her. By imitating her, we glorify and honor God the Holy Ghost.

Unlocking the Power of Identity

DVRodriguez2026-07-13T16:54:56-04:00

The testimony of John the Baptist confirms the prophecies: the time has come. His identity is questioned by the Sanhedrin and the Pharisees challenge his authority to baptize. Who are you? God IS. He is the abyss of all goodness. God is everything and man is nothing. Yet God has made us to be something in Christ. Only in Him can we 'find ourselves' and realize our true end.

La Santísima Trinidad y la Vida Familiar

DVRodriguez2026-06-09T15:47:08-04:00

El misterio central de Dios es la Santísima Trinidad: Dios es Uno en tres Personas divinas. La Iglesia existe para dar a conocer este misterio infinito a todos. Este gran misterio tiene implicaciones prácticas en nuestra forma de vivir. Por ejemplo, la familia fue concebida para reflejar la Santísima Trinidad. El propósito de cada aspecto de nuestra fe, de nuestro matrimonio, de nuestra vida —de todo— es dar gloria a la Santísima Trinidad.

A Catholic Profession of Faith

DVRodriguez2026-06-03T06:59:29-04:00

Baptism, Faith, and the Church. These three major themes of Eastertide always go together and can’t be separated. God gives us Faith at Baptism through the Church. To be saved one must believe the Faith preached by the Church and be baptized. There Is a great crisis in the Church today because these three are being separated, especially by members of the hierarchy. He that believeth not shall be condemned. Doctrinal errors rampant today are exposed by a ‘Declaration of Catholic Faith’ recently published by a group of traditional Catholics. Women, look to the example of the Church to see what [...]

Adoro Te Devote

DVRodriguez2026-06-01T11:52:13-04:00

The Church presents us with three great Easter themes — Faith, Baptism, Holy Eucharist — and three great Easter professions of Faith. It is very easy to deceive ourselves regarding religion and faith. Anyone who considers himself ‘good’ but does not strive to keep the Faith deceives himself and his faith is in vain. We must be on guard to keep ourselves unspotted from the world, for the world inevitably takes us away from the Faith. A man of faith seeks to grow in faith and act by faith.

The Catholic Walketh by Faith

DVRodriguez2026-05-27T08:14:37-04:00

Whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world. The Catholic Faith is the victory which overcometh the world. Faith is God’s free gift to us; it makes eternal life possible. Man must believe the Faith (truth), live by Faith (God’s commandments), and pray according to the Faith (worship revealed by God). It is impossible to please God without the True Faith. The just man – he who acts in accordance with his baptism – guides his thoughts, words, and actions by faith (truths revealed by God), not by his reason, experience, senses, perceptions or feelings.

Catecismo Básico Sobre el Espíritu Santo

DVRodriguez2026-05-25T18:19:58-04:00

Existe mucha confusión en torno al Espíritu Santo. He aquí un catecismo básico sobre el Espíritu Santo: tres acciones, tres gracias, tres enemigos, tres fiestas y tres oraciones. El Espíritu Santo ilumina la mente, fortalece la voluntad y enciende el corazón. Si un católico no practica su fe, se debilita. Demos un paso de fe y vivamos esta fiesta (y octava) de Pentecostés como verdaderos católicos.

Do You Act Based on Faith?

DVRodriguez2026-05-17T08:13:33-04:00

Baptism and Faith are themes central to Easter (as is the Holy Eucharist). We must understand Faith as a supernatural virtue, knowing it rests on the authority of God, not our own reason or experience. Far too often we speak, act, dress, select our entertainment guided not by faith, but by our opinions or those of the world. This is a fatal mistake. Offer reparation, not because it is logical, but out of faith. Be faithful in prayer, not because you see its effects, but out of faith. Always carry the Faith in your mind and heart.

The Great Importance of Conversion

DVRodriguez2026-05-23T10:36:12-04:00

The Church Fathers and Doctors indicate the true meaning of the Christmas is conversion! In fact, continual conversion is the foundation of the spiritual life. The Holy Eucharist, Confession, and all the Sacraments have conversion as a central element. Yet everyone greatly struggles to change. So like the three kings, bring you gifts to adore the Christ Child. Offer your charity and consecration (gold of Melchior), your prayer and reparation (incense of Caspar), and your mortification and conversion (myrrh of Balthasar). Believe and live according to this truth: God became like us that we might become like Him.
