Stop the Nakedness

Posted on July 17, 2011 by admin



Canvas will be hosting an art show in our gallery space at 3205 Montrose Blvd on Friday, August 5. The show will benefit a local non-profit organization that is doing great work both locally and globally. When you buy a shirt from Stop the Nakedness your purchase provides clothing for people in need. For every shirt purchased Stop the Nakedness donates one shirt locally and one shirt overseas. Who knew buying clothes could help save the world?!

We will be doing our normal art show thing: great art, tunes from DJ Andrew Lawrence, complimentary wine and cheese, and lots of great conversation. This time however, the proceeds from any purchase you make will go to clothe people in need around the world. I can’t think of a better way to start a Friday night.

Prayer:

O Thou who has order this wondrous world, and who knowest all things in earth and heaven: So fill our hearts with trust in thee that by night and day, at all times and in all seasons, we may without fear commit all that we have and hope to be to thy never-failing love, for this life and the life to come; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Reading for Reflection:

Excerpts from Interior Castle (Teresa of Avila) - Selection 2 of 11 God appeals to us through other good people, through sermons, or through the reading of good books. Sometimes he calls through our sicknesses and our trials as he bids us to pray. However feeble such prayers may be, God values them highly. God looks into our souls and perceives our desires. If our desires are good, we cannot fail. Nevertheless, the assaults of the devils that are made upon the soul are terrible. Again, this is why the soul suffers more at this stage than does the beginner. Whereas before the soul was somewhat deaf and blind and had no will to resist, now it has begun to hear and see and resist as one who is about to gain victory. It is at this stage that the devils will attack the soul with the earthly pleasures of this world, like snakes who bite with deadly poison. They trick the soul into thinking that such pleasures will last an eternity; they remind the soul of the high esteem in which it is held in the world; they place before it the many friends and relatives who will disagree with the manner of life you have now begun.
