.=: M O R N I N G P R A Y E R :=. from Father Pat Umberger __________________________________________________ T E C H T I P F R O M F A T H E R P A T e-mail with different fonts and text sizes While I was in Boston some of you appreciated the way Margie sent Morning Prayer. It had a different font and the text was larger. Others of you complained that you weren't able to read it, since you receive text-only messages. Morning Prayer has always been sent as "text only." So the text displayed is according to the default setting on your computer. The file size (bandwidth) is much smaller with plain text than it is with the way Margie sent Morning Prayer. She sent HTML (Hyper-Text Markup Language) e-mails. Formatting is included, the e-mail is more attractive and the text can be specified by the sender. Because of the limitations of bandwidth, out of respect for those who allow us to use their server and because many simply despise HTML e-mail, we continue to send Morning Prayer as plain text. __________________________________________________ .=: S C R I P T U R E F O R T H E D A Y :=. "I believe; help my unbelief!" ~Mark 9:24 .=: M E D I T A T I O N F O R T H E D A Y :=. "I believe; help my unbelief!" This cry of the human heart is an expression of human frailty. It signifies the soul's sincere desire for progress. As we feel the existence of God and God's power, we can believe in God more and more. At the same time, we can be more conscious of our falling short of absolute trust in God. The soul's progress is an increasing belief, then a cry for more faith, a plea to conquer all unbelief, all lack of trust. We can believe that this cry is heard by God and that this prayer is answered in due time. And so our faith can grow, little by little, day by day. .=: P R A Y E R F O R T H E D A Y :=. I pray that with more power in my life will come more faith. I pray that I may come to trust God more each day. .=: S C R I P T U R E S A N D S A I N T O F T H E D A Y := Scriptures: http://www.nccbuscc.org/nab/ Saint of the Day: http://www.americancatholic.org/Features/SaintofDay/ .=: W E P R A Y :=. We pray for unity in our country and that we may build a Culture of Life. We pray for the safety of our troops, their safe return and their families at home. We pray for a deep and profound respect for life, and for the courage and willingness to stand up for life. We pray for one another, for those who have asked our prayers and for those who need our prayers the most. Have a good day! .=: A D A I L Y B L E S S I N G :=. http://message.viditalk.com/ver12/showvideo.asp?vid=38058.65105 For a video blessing from Father Pat, just click the link above.
