* 10:05 – Thought for today from Archbishop Lefebvre: Jesus comes to save us. So He is constantly giving expression to that yearning which is fundamental in Him: that desire to save souls. Even while He is saving bodies, while He is giving sight to the blind, or as He gives the paralytic the ability to walk again, He has no other goal than to save souls. In saving bodies, He is saving souls because He demands faith of those whom He wishes to heal. Therefore He saves them by the faith which they have in Him. So He is communicating sanctifying grace to them at the same time.
