Lost Without Your Love by Bread.
Lost and all alone
I always thought that I could make it on my own
Since you left I hardly make it through the day
My tears get in the way
And I need you back to stay
I wander through the night
And search the world to find
The words to make it right
All I want is just the way it used to be
With you here close to me
Ive got to make you see
That Im lost without your love
Life without you isnt worth the trouble of
Im as helpless as a ship without a wheel
A touch without a feel
I cant believe its real...
And someday soon Ill wake
And find my heart wont have to break
Yes Im lost without your love
Life without you isnt worth the trouble of
All I want is just the way it used to be
I need you here with me
Oh darlin cant you see...
If we had love before
We can have it back once more

Joseph Pearce, Associate Professor of Literature, Ave Maria University, USA
Novena for Work to St Josemaria
Opus Dei, a personal prelature of the Catholic Church
What does "Opus Dei" mean?
Saint Josemaría in Barcelona, 1972
Opus Dei means "the Work of God". Its complete name is the Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei. It is also known as the Opus Dei prelature, or simply, Opus Dei.
What is Opus Dei?
Opus Dei is a personal prelature of the Catholic Church. Its aim is to contribute to the Church's evangelizing mission by helping all kinds of Christian faithful to live fully in accordance with their faith in life's ordinary circumstances, and especially to sanctify their daily work.
St Josemaria explained, "God raised up Opus Dei in 1928 to help remind Christians that, as we read in the book of Genesis, God created man in order to work. We have come to point to the example of Jesus, who spent thirty years in Nazareth, working at his job. In Jesus' hands, work, an ordinary job like that done by millions of people throughout the world, becomes a divine task, a redeeming job, a path of salvation."
What does sanctifying one's work mean?
The spirit of Opus Dei reflects the marvellous reality that any honest and worthwhile work can be turned into a divine occupation. Sanctifying one's work means working in the spirit of Jesus Christ -- doing one's work well and finishing it off, to give glory to God and serve others, and so help sanctify the world, by bringing the spirit of the Gospel into all human activities.
How did Opus Dei start?
On September 30, 1928, Fr Josemaria Escriva began a retreat in Madrid (Spain), which was going to continue until October 7. The second day of that retreat, on October 2, after Mass, Fr Josemaria returned to his room and began to put his notes in order: resolutions and inspirations taken down during his prayer, and meditated upon many times already. There, suddenly he "saw" Opus Dei. "I received the vision about the whole of the Work while I was reading those notes. Deeply moved, I kneeled down -- I was alone in my room -- and gave thanks to the Lord, and I remember with emotion the sound of the bells from Our Lady of the Angels church."
What does the Opus Dei prelature do?
The prelature offers to its faithful and to anyone else who wants it, spiritual formation and pastoral help to know and love God in their ordinary surroundings, in the Church and in the world, and to bear witness to their faith and contribute to solving society's problems in a Christian way.

In Shakespeare's Catholicism, Joseph Pearce presents biographical and literary evidence proving the Bard's adherence to the true Faith in a time of persecution and upheaval in Elizabethan England.
Professor Pearce reveals little-known details of Shakespeare's life, including his Catholic education, openly Catholic father and daughter, his friendship with Jesuit martyr St. Robert Southwell, and his purchase of the Blackfriar's Gatehouse—a known hub for underground Catholic liturgy.
Among the plays discussed in light of Shakespeare's faith, is Romeo & Juliet—possibly the most famous love story ever told. Far from taking a popular interpretation of their star-crossed love, Professor Pearce illustrates Romeo's egocentric obsession with Juliet, the destruction of her childhood innocence, and the fault of all the mature figures in the play who fail to protect her.
Professor Pearce tackles the charge of "anti-semitism" in Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice—clearing the air for the Bard's true use of Shylock as an anti-hero. He illustrates the spiritual symbolism of the relationship between Venice and Belmont and Portia's role as a literary icon of grace, similar to Dante's Beatrice.
Examining the plot of Shakespeare's most famous and most misunderstood play, Hamlet, Pearce highlights the tension that which exists between the sanity and sanctity of his heroes—who exhibit characteristics of the saints—and the sin and cynicism of his villains—who portray the Machiavellian machinations of the liar and the tyrant.
Macbeth presents two starkly different visions of kingship, according to Professor Pearce, one which is rooted in the Catholic mediaeval understanding of kingship, the other in the cynical pragmatism of Machiavelli's Prince. Macbeth is Hamlet's opposite—while Hamlet knows there is concrete truth and morality in life, Macbeth loses his head and soul in succumbing to relativism and his own sin-deceived ego.
Like Hamlet, King Lear is not only one of Shakespeare's greatest plays but also one of his most abused and misrepresented. King Lear is best compared with a modern work like George Orwell's 1984 because it is a clarion cry against the abuses of centralized power. Shakespeare's play does not end with the triumph of tyranny but with the triumph of humility, and the sanctity and sanity which are its fruits.
Hear the evidence and decide for yourself—Shakespeare was a Catholic and his plays attest to his deep and powerful faith.
