Deus é a luz celestial que os astros unge e veste,
E dessa eterna luz nós todos fomos feitos.
Um fulgor de orações brilha nos nossos peitos:
É o reflexo estelar dessa origem celeste.
.
O homem mais louco e vil, cuja alma ímpia se creste
Aos fogos infernais dos mais torpes defeitos,
De vez em quando sente esplendores eleitos,
Que tombam nele como o luar sobre um cipreste.
.
Quem não sentiu no peito a carícia divina,
A enchê-lo de clarões na transparência hialina
De um astro que cintila em pleno azul sem véus?
.
Tudo é luz na nossa alma, e o mais vil, o mais louco,
Bem sabe que esta vida é um sol que dura pouco
E que Deus vive em nós como dentro dos céus...
(Alphonsus de Guimaraens)

Genuflection. What is it and why do we do it? .
.
Simply put, we genuflect to show reverence to God, who we as Catholics believe to be present, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity in the Eucharist and kept in the tabernacle. .
.
To genuflect is to show reverence and deference to someone we believe to be greater than ourselves. It’s a physical cue to the one genuflected to and to all those around to say, “Hey, this Person is extremely important and deserves our respect.” .
.
In the old days I believe for a bishop and a king, you genuflected on the left knee. (Although now it seems it may be done on the right as well. Possibly because it became confusing.) To genuflect on the right is reserved as a sign of adoration and therefore for God alone. .
.
I see many times that people wander into Catholic churches and they don’t genuflect. And honestly, I don’t think it’s because they don’t care about God. I think it’s because they don’t know that they should, that they’re supposed to. I feel that it’s such a beautiful outward sign that shows that God is truly present in the Holy Eucharist. So if you aren’t genuflecting already, now’s a great time to start! And the next time you go to church maybe with a friend who doesn’t know or isn’t Catholic, let them know why you’re doing it. They’ll probably ask you. Let them know that we believe Christ is really there and that every knee should bend in the presence of the King of Kings!

Keep fighting, keep the Faith and God Love you!

Know who it is that stands before you. If Jesus himself stood before you would you not genuflect out of respect? He is present in the eucharist and if you believe this you too shall kneel before him. What use to be mandatory has now become an option. We must return to the traditions of our faith. Traditions that were placed there from the very start of Catholicism. We must ask why have they taken these once important traditions away and we must work towards bringing them back and restoring our faith. #traditionalcatholic #genuflect #reverence #respect #catholic #catholicism #tradition #kneel

Genuflexório: Um Cantinho de Orações
♂️ Independente de ajoelhar ou não, nossas preces são feitas de maneiras sinceras e honestas.
➡️Você sabia
(“Genu” é o equivalente em francês para “joelho”, que por sua vez, vem do latim “genuculu”; já a palavra flexório, é bastante óbvia). Assim, resumindo, genuflexório é um local onde se flexionam o joelho para orações.
Quando adentramos em uma Igreja, e percebemos aquele tablado, propício para ficar ajoelhado, de cara identificamos aquele local, como um canto dedicado a orações e momentos de intimidade para Deus. Desde modo, não é incomum, encontramos modelos de genuflexório feitos para termos em nossas casas, de modo a montarmos o nosso cantinho de orações.
