John Alex Pinto, OCD REFLECTIONS 4th Sunday in Ordinary Time by Father Antony Kadavil (Dt 18:15-20; I Cor 7:32-35; Mk 1:21-28) January 31, 2021 Scripture lessons summarized: Today’s first reading tells us that a true prophet speaks with authority because it is God Who speaks through him. After the Baby- lonian exile, the Jewish priests began to interpret the words of Moses given in the first reading, namely, "a prophet like me," as referring to one individual, the expected Messiah. This passage is chosen for today’s first reading because it refers to Jesus, the "preacher with authority," mentioned in today's Gospel. In the second reading, St. Paul exercises his God-given authority as the Apostle to the Gentiles to teach people in Corinth that marriage is a holy state ordained by God and that it is a life-long “O that today you would listen to the partnership according to the teaching of the Lord. In today’s Gospel, Mark describes Voice of the Lord. Do not harden one sample Sabbath day of Jesus’ public your hearts .” life.

Today’s reading tells us that a true prophet would speak with authority quiet! Come out of him!" This was another because it would be God Who spoke through him. The text was first seen as reason Jesus developed a reputation for promising that there would be a line of prophets to interpret previous revelations speaking with authority. by God and to add some new ones for each generation.

My Guardian Angel has helped me many times when I am not sure what to do. For example, she helped me once when one classmate was left alone and no one wanted to play with her because she was new. I wasn't sure I wanted to play with her because my friends were waiting to play with me on the other side of the playground. But I thought it wouldn't be nice to leave my classmate alone so I invited her to play with us, and she was so happy! I felt really good too.

  • Guardian Angels of Our Better Nature: Finding Evidence of the Benefits of Design Thinking
    Paper ID #14037 Guardian Angels of Our Better Nature: Finding Evidence of the Benefits of Design Thinking Dr. Luke David Conlin, Stanford University Luke Conlin is a postdoctoral scholar in the Graduate School of Education at Stanford University. His work focuses on the learning of engineering and science in formal and informal environments. Doris B Chin Ph.D., Stanford Graduate School of Education Dr. Kristen Pilner Blair, Stanford University Dr. Maria Cutumisu, Stanford University Prof. Daniel L Schwartz, Stanford University Dr. Schwartz studies human learning, especially as it applies to matters of instruction. Page 26.828.1 Page c American Society for Engineering Education, 2015 Guardian Angels of Our Better Nature: Finding Evidence of the Benefits of Design Thinking INTRODUCTION In the field of engineering education and beyond, there is a widespread and growing belief in the importance of teaching the disciplinary practices of engineering design, i.e., “design thinking”. Many have attempted to teach design thinking in the service of learning content, especially in math and science1; others have emphasized its importance for training future designers and engineers2. Despite the energy and enthusiasm of proponents, there has been relatively little research conducted on (1) whether design thinking is teachable, i.e. whether students will apply it somewhere else besides the immediate context, and (2) whether design thinking is beneficial for learning in these new contexts. In our view, one of the most important features of design thinking is that, similar to the scientific method, it invites a focus on ways of thinking that can protect against common pitfalls when learning, solving problems, or doing creative work.

  • Angels: the Messengers of God
    “Instaurare omnia in Christo” Angels: The Messengers of God “Love’s fire”: Angels in the Divine Comedy The Human Side of Angels Making artistic Sense of the Angels January - February 2018 Letter from the Publisher Dear readers, The Angelus magazine has a place in each traditional family because it fulfills a purpose in the combat for Tradition. It provides food for thought to the heads of our spiritual family, and helps them to formulate the right principles which they will apply practically to life’s circumstances. This is what we have been doing since the creation of the magazine, almost 40 years ago. This is what we have done again this past year. We cannot afford to leave aside the burning questions of the day: The American geopolitical issues, such as the Middle East, and the papacy dilemma, along with the ecumenical thrust towards Luther. And so, at first glance, it may seem incongruous and obsolete to focus on the abstract question of angels. We believe in angels and in their activity among men, but this remains most likely an academic topic with little to no impact on our day to day struggles in this finite world of ours. Is this to say that angels have no history and are disinterested with our lot? Anyone who has been involved with souls knows that the struggle is between good and evil: The good influences led by our good God and His angels and the bad ones, led by the devil and his allies within and without. Any priest will tell you that he feels like an exorcist as he puts on the confessional stole or administers the sacraments, climbs up the altar and defends Catholic principles throughout his day to day pastoral problems.

  • Guardian Angels'
    At peace at last... but still alive to ' tell the tale' thanks to my three 'Guardian Angels' So, you think suicide is a selfish act. I challenge you to read this story and tell me that people like me are not in a living hell and it is society, our work places, the NHS, sometimes our own 'friends and family', the housing executive and just about everyone around us that give Satan the whips to lash us with, and you will never know the day they strike for you: I'm sure you've heard the expression " I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy !". It is my belief good people (which most of us are), if we suffer long enough and severe enough we actually go beyond that expression and would do almost ANYTHING to ensure no-one suffers as we have and have extreme empathy for those that do. I would like to assure you that my wish for this story to go out into the great wide world and especially across my beloved Northern Ireland (in spite of it's violent history), is in no way vanity. I am not that kind of person, but as I say, I am prepared to do almost ANYTHING if it in any way stops others suffering as I have and does anything at all to change the society I live in which attacks people like me from almost every advantage point there is. I was extremely 'lucky' to have had the right ' Guardian Angel' at the right time. How many other people out there, either don't have them or realise that they are right beside them, right now? But I very much doubt you believe me? I challenge you to read this entire story and tell me different! My further challenge to society in general is to offer your hand of help, rather than your pointed finger of blame, shame and damnation.
