ICEMANforChrist

This blog is based on references in the Bible to fear. God wills that we “BE NOT AFRAID”. Vincit qui se vincit" is a Latin phrase meaning "He conquers who conquers himself." Many theologians state that the eighth deadly sin is fear. It is fear and its natural animal reaction to fight or flight that is the root cause of our failings to create a Kingdom of God on earth. This blog is dedicated to Mary the Mother of God. "

Pray for our Pope, Bishops and Priests

Remain with us, Lord

IcemanforChrist: The reason this blog is called "Iceman for Christ" is I was a member of Naval Mobile Construction Battalion that complete construction of the South Pole Station in 1974. At that time there was only one priest in Antarctica and I was asked by him to give the eucharistic to my fellow Catholics at a protestant service celebrated by the Battalion Chaplin on Sundays. At that time only priestly consecrated hands could give the eucharist. There were not eucharist ministers at that time. I was given permission by a letter from the bishop to handled our Lord. Years later I was reading the bible and read "and you shall take me to the ends of the earth." I reflected on it for a second and thought Yes, been there done that. Be not afraid and serve Christ King. Greater is HE; than he who is in the world.

Switch of Manliness Legacy OUR LADY OF CZESTOCHOWA Acts, Chapter 10, verse 1-4 1 Now in Caesarea there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion of the Cohort called the Italica, 2 devout and God-fearing along with his whole household, who used to give alms generously to the Jewish people and pray to God constantly. 3 One afternoon about three o’clock, he saw plainly in a vision an angel of God come into him and say to him, “Cornelius.” 4 He looked intently at him and seized with FEAR , said, “What is it, sir?” He said to him, “Your prayers and almsgiving have ascended as a memorial offering before God. Cornelius’ Cohort was an auxiliary unit of archers, men who are expert at hitting a mark or target. Sin is the act of violating God's will. Sin can also be viewed as anything that violates the ideal relationship between an individual and God, or as any diversion from the ideal order for human living. To sin has been defined as "to miss the mark" to have a h...

Monday Night at the Movies Luis Bunuel, Simon of the Desert, 1965 SAINT MOTHER THEODORE GUERIN Hebrews, Chapter 12, Verse 21 Indeed, so FEARFUL was the spectacle that Moses said, “I am terrified and trembling.” Moses was the heir apparent to the throne of Egypt in his youth. As a member of the Egyptian court, he would have seen many fearful spectacles yet imagine what it must have been like to have been a witness of God descending on Mount Sinai to give the law. He was terrified and trembling. Again, now imagine if Moses was somehow resurrected and was able to walk into an ordinary catholic church that has a very modest Blessed Sacrament Chapel. Do you think his reaction would be any different than the first time he encountered the living God? Be Still and Know that I am God [1] On the evening of October 1995, John Paul II was scheduled to greet the seminarians at Saint Mary’s Seminary in Baltimore. It had been a very full day that began with a Mass at...

Smoke in This Life Not the Next Thu, Jul 16 — Our Lady of Mount Carmel Virtue: Hidden Glory Cigar: Sumatra – silky, mysterious Bourbon: Michter’s US 1 – clean, thoughtful* Reflection: “What truth do I speak in mercy?” Hidden glory is the radiance that does not announce itself — the holiness that moves quietly beneath the surface of a man’s life. Tonight’s Sumatra burns with that same subtle mystery: silky, patient, unwilling to rush. Michter’s US*1 follows with its clean, thoughtful profile, the taste of a man who has learned that truth spoken without mercy becomes a weapon rather than a healing. This pairing belongs to Our Lady of Mount Carmel, whose mantle veils not to conceal but to protect, and whose silence teaches that glory often arrives without spectacle. The old account of the suffering soul reveals how easily the human heart misjudges time when separated from grace. The blessed brother believed he had endured a year of purgatorial agony, only to lear...

July 1 — Day 8 of the Nine Days The Jordan as Identity “I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness.” If Day 4 is the Surrender, Day 5 the Joy that follows surrender, Day 6 the Witness that flows from joy, Day 7 the Decrease that makes witness possible, then Day 8 is the Identity that emerges from decrease . John knows who he is because he knows who he is not . He is not the Christ, not Elijah returned, not the Prophet foretold. He is the Voice — nothing more, and nothing less. At the Jordan, identity is not self‑constructed but God‑revealed. John receives his name, his mission, his place from the One he serves. His identity is not a performance but a vocation. This is the freedom the modern world has forgotten: identity is not invented, it is bestowed. Not seized, but received. Not curated, but called. A nation approaching its 250th year must relearn this truth: we are not what we brand, broadcast, or demand. We are what God names us to be — a people formed for His purposes. The...

June 30 — Day 7 of the Nine Days The Jordan as Decrease “I am not the Christ.” If Day 4 is the Surrender, Day 5 the Joy that follows surrender, Day 6 the Witness that flows from joy, then Day 7 is the Decrease that makes witness possible . John’s entire identity is rooted in this one truth: he is not the Messiah. He is the friend, the forerunner, the voice — never the center. At the Jordan, he refuses the role the crowds try to give him. He rejects the praise, the titles, the projections. He knows who he is because he knows who he is not . This is the freedom of the saints: the freedom to step back without losing themselves. The freedom to let Christ be everything without feeling diminished. A nation approaching its 250th year must rediscover this humility — the humility to stop pretending to be its own savior, the humility to admit limits, the humility to let God be God. We exhaust ourselves trying to be the center. John rests in being the servant. And in that rest, he becomes gre...

SMOKE IN THIS LIFE NOT THE NEXT Thu, Jul 23 — Bottom Shelf Day Virtue: Intercession & Fidelity Cigar: Bottom‑shelf Dominican — humble, honest, the quiet leaf of hidden labor Bourbon: Evan Williams Black — simple, steady, the drink of those who keep vigil Reflection: “Help me, dear sister… pray.” If last night’s Cameroon carried the warmth of recognition, today’s bottom‑shelf smoke carries the weight of responsibility — the sober knowledge that love does not end at death, and charity does not cease when a soul crosses the threshold of judgment. Blessed Stephana Quinziani knew this truth in her bones. Kneeling beside the bier of Sister Paula, she prayed with the tenderness of one who refuses to abandon a friend. And then the impossible happened: the crucifix fell, the dead hand rose, and the living were summoned into the suffering of the departed. A grip, a plea, a revelation — the hidden architecture of Purgatory laid bare in a single gesture. “Help me… pray… do penance for me...

Auxilium Christianorum - Praying for Persecuted Priests Monday, May 24 is the Feast of Mary Mother of the Church. It is also the Feast of Mary Help of Christians (Auxilium Christianorum). Please consider joining this Auxilium Christianorum family to pray daily for our holy and courageous persecuted priests. The Church teaches us that it is divided into the Church Triumphant (which includes the members of the Church in heaven), the Church Suffering (this includes the members of the Church in purgatory), and the Church Militant (this refers to those members of the Church who are alive in this world). Because we are part of the Church Militant, we are in a spiritual warfare and this spiritual warfare requires that we recognize, as Saint Paul teaches us "For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and powers, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high ...

A Mortgage System That Rewards Marriage, Children, and Service: A Blueprint for American Renewal

Introduction: What If We Rewarded the People Who Hold the Country Together? Every nation has to decide what it values. Some reward consumption. Some reward speculation. Some reward short-term gain. But what if America chose to reward the people who actually build the country? What if the path to homeownership — the heart of the American Dream — became easier for those who commit to marriage, raise children, serve their communities, defend the nation, and carry the weight of a lifetime of work into retirement? Imagine a mortgage system built around civilizational priorities , not bank profits: –1% mortgage rate for getting married –1% for each child born or adopted –1% for military service –1% for public service (teachers, nurses, first responders) –1% at retirement This isn’t a gimmick. It’s a demographic, economic, and cultural strategy — one that could reshape the country for the better. Let’s explore the positives, the challenges, and how such a system could help...
