Starting on the first day of Summer, 2012, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has called for a "Fortnight of Faith," which will end on the Fourth of July. As residents of the United States, and particularly but not alone for Catholics, this is our opportunity to enjoy the advertising efforts that have gone into this project. This is our opportunity to make the Fortnight of Faith an observance of Truths that have stood for Centuries. As a part of that effort, this post is part of a continuing series of blog posts intended to focus on exactly that, making the next two weeks an observance, not of political disputes, but of universal and eternal truths.
Take heed that you do not perform works of charity before people, to be seen by them; otherwise you have no reward from your Father, who is in Heaven.
Therefore when you perform works of charity, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have the adoration of people. Amen, amen I say unto you, they have their reward.
But when you perform works of charity, let not your left hand know what your right hand does:
That your good works may be in secret; and your Father, who sees in secret, shall reward you in the open.
Matthew 6:1-4.
