Today’s readings are from Notebook 1, numbers 229-233.
Sister Faustina is getting ready to take her perpetual vows and she’s all a flutter, just like a new bride. I think it’s a good idea to talk about what vows are and how powerful they are. Vows made to or made with God as a witness bind us in a supernatural way to the one with who we make the vow. It’s a shame that we don’t take vows seriously even or understand their power.

I think a big part of the problem with today’s marriages is they are NOT made before God. So many, many people have civil marriages and get married by a friend or relative. I don’t think it has/holds the same solemnity and reverence as being married in a church by a priest or a minister.
Oh yes, completely agree. Too many weddings are about having a “cool” setting or venue.
