There may be some hope for the situation with my family but I really need all of your prayers. Please, please, ask God for a miracle with them. I am so hopeful and trusting that He will provide for me but a lot of grace will be needed for my family to come around. Please keep praying!

Engraving of Three Nuns, London Illustrated News, 1891. (x)

Fraternal communion is a reflection of God's own way of being and bestowing Himself; it testifies to the fact that "God is Love" (1 Jn 4:8, 16). The consecrated life professes to believe in, and live by, the love of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The community of brothers and sisters thus becomes a graced reflection of the God who is a Trinity of Love. Unlike the life of hermits, who live in silence and solitude, and are likewise esteemed by the Church, the monastic life entails a growing community life meant to create an authentic fraternal communion, a koinonia. This means that all the members must see themselves as builders of community and not simply recipients of its eventual benefits. A community exists inasmuch as it comes about and is built up by the contribution of all, each according to his or her gifts, through the development of a strong spirituality of communion whereby all experience a sense of belonging. Only in this way can life in community provide its members with the mutual assistance needed to live their vocation to the full. You who have embraced the monastic life must never forget that today's men and women expect you to bear witness to an authentic fraternal communion that, in a society marked by divisions and inequality, clearly demonstrates that life in common is both possible and fulfilling (cf. Ps 133:1), despite differences of age, education, and even culture. Your communities ought to be credible signs that these differences, far from being an obstacle to fraternal life, actually enrich it. Remember that unity and communion are not the same as uniformity, and are nourished by dialogue, sharing, mutual assistance, and profound compassion, especially towards the most frail and needy.

Pope Francis (Vultum Dei quaerere, §25-26). Bolded emphases added.

Yet Christian love is not abstract but lived in the concrete manner of love for one another.

from the NABRE commentary for 1 John 4:13-21

glass & ocelot <3

[ID: five drawings featuring two characters: glass, a short thin chinese man with short dark hair and round glasses, and ocelot, a tall buff white norwegian guy with shaggy brown hair and facial scars.

1. glass holding up ocelot by the shirtfront and pressing a gun to his temple. glass looks angry and flustered. ocelot, who is bleeding from a forhead wound and from his nose, looks amused and is saying "ooo you wanna kiss me sooooo baaad."

2. a sketch of glass, covered in blood and rubbing the side of his head with his gun, is overlayed with a textpost by taxidermychrist that says, " *covered in blood & in visible distress* I just need to write a list."

3. a sketch of ocelot holding a steaming mug and looking curiously with his head tilted to the side, quoting a tweet by @BipolarHaver that says, " *flirting* if you had to kill me how would you do it?"

4. a greyscale drawing of a tabletop cluttered with items, including: an employee ID card for a company called "jameson & abbott solutions" with glass' picture and the name "zhao, lixin"; a ring of keys; a mug; chewed-on pens; a gun; gauze packets with blood on them; an intricately cut-out butterfly knife; some rope; a norwegian bear keychain; a polaroid of ocelot; and a napkin that is written on in cursive reading, "happy birthday! sorry about the stabbing. [heart], ocelot."

5. a close-up drawing of ocelot on his knees in front of glass. glass has a bloody knife held level with hos open fly, and ocelot is licking the blade of it while grabbing at ocelot's thigh. end ID]

Vocation Love & Hate NE IPA (Picked up at a Waitrose in Edinburgh, Scotland). A 3 of 4. Still a little bit thin for a hazy IPA, but has a really nice bright tropical hop profile. Nicely balanced and soft on the palate with a touch of bitterness in the finish.

you've heard of love languages (for friends / lovers / etc), now get ready for hate languages (for enemies):

words of denial / insult

distance

forcefields / armour / weapons (to keep from touching or to cause physical pain)

acts of disservice

stealing

Please pray for the receptivity of my family to my religious vocation, and the conversion of their hearts. I want them to be even more in love with God than I am, but I despair a bit that it could ever happen.
