Subject: [TAC] Daily Excerpt for September 14 2006 Date: September 12, 2006 07:29 pm Today's excerpt is from St. Theodore the Studite: "O most precious gift of the Cross! How splendid it looks! [...] It is a tree which begets life, without causing death; which sheds light, without casting shadows; which leads to Paradise and does not expel anyone therefrom; it is the wood which Christ ascended, as a king mounting His chariot, to defeat the devil who had usurped the power of death, and to set mankind free from the thrall in which the devil held it. This wood, on which the Lord, valiant fighter in the combat, was wounded in His divine hands and feet and side, healed the effects of sins and the wounds which the pernicious dragon had inflicted on our nature [...]. That supreme wisdom, which, so to speak, burgeoned on the Cross, exposed the boasts and the foolish arrogance of the wisdom of the world." ("Oratio In Adorationem Crucis"). God Bless. Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, pray for us! St. Gianna Beretta Molla, pray for us! -- Art and Lupe Garcia, OCDS art_lupe@theapostoliccrusade.org The Apostolic Crusade PO Box 1724 La Mirada, Ca 90637-1724 Home Page: http://www.theapostoliccrusade.org/ Introduction Letter: http://www.theapostoliccrusade.org/IntroductionLetter.htm To unsubscribe to this e-mail service, please reply to this email with “unsubscribe” in the subject field.
