            <description>When you think of mortification of the flesh, what comes to mind?  Hair shirts and hard, hard fasting?

As with many things spiritual, let us not confuse the means with the ends.</description>

            <title>12/29/08 Thread of Grace: Divine Exchange</title>
            <description>Have you ever noticed that when many people talk to a baby how happy they become? They do not see, or rather see past, all of their troubles and worries. No, all of their responsibilities do not magically disappear.  Rather, they come to a deep and immediate understanding of what&apos;s really important: love and life. One of the many gifts of the Christ Child is the opportunity to see the forest and not the trees.</description>
