Sorry I've been MIA. My kids have all been sick for the last two weeks. They've had a viral infection and I just found out today that my oldest daughter, Julia, who's five, has an enlarged heart that they found on an xray that they took at the E.R., but didn't even bother telling us about it. Also my middle daughter, Isabella is starting to come down with pneumonia, which I am waiting for the nebulizer to arrive at my house now and my youngest son, Andrew, is severely dehydrated. I think we reached our climax with Sophia earlier this week with stridor and severe dehydration and my oldest seems to be perfectly fine. I'm starting to realize I can't handle this on my own and seriously need God's help right now, I'm especially worried about Julia's heart and I can't imagine having to take her out of gymnastics because that is her absolute most favorite thing to do. Hopefully it's just because the way she was lying, as her doctor says, but we go to the cardiologist on the 30th. |

Faith,then,is a comprehensive knowledge, so to speak, of the essentials; but knowledge is the strong and firm proof of what is accepted through faith, and which leads to infallibility and understanding and to sudden comprehension. And it seems to me that first saving change from paganism to faith, as I said before; and the second is that from faith to knowledge. This latter develops into love, and afterwards presents the one loving to Him that is loved, and the one knowing to Him that is known. And, such a one, perhaps, has already attained the condition of being like to an angel. ~ St. Clement of Alexandria |
