My name is Lorenzo Crescini and I’m Italian. These "Flashes on Good
and evil" reflect the same mood characterizing the Flashes on the Holy
Gospels and Turin’s Holy Shroud I wrote in Africa: making myself
useful to our Lord Jesus Christ.
I will start by quoting the best Prayer to Jesus I’ve ever read.
At the very beginning some reflections concern the devil one.
I thank all those who will read me, write to me, will ask for an
explanation and those who will be able and willing to advertise what
they read by Web, the press or however they like.
I am confident that the last of my Reflections containing a few lined
short account of my life, will be devoted to all of us who are proud
of the Lord.

Best regards
Here are three Reflections as an example
24) One cannot or mustn’t say to those who are ill and suffering: "
That’s God who puts you to the test". In this way we would offend The
God of Endless Love who cannot wish our suffering. One needs say to
those who suffer: " God’s Son himself suffered because of evil, but
you will also resurrect with Him, as He did". That is the truth and
only the truth can give one who suffers the Hope which won’t let him
fall into that despair the devil one wants to seize his soul and
conscience! Saying: "it’s God who puts you to the test" gives a
suffering man the same relief a learned lecture on food chemistry
gives a starving one.
29) We can give or take from God, Creator of all things, nothing,
except for two things: we can take from Him Honour by offending Him
with our refusal, we can give Him our love, by accepting Him in our
heart! With what insolence might we wish or boast His Light one day,
we, if we had denied Him all life long, being able to believe Him and
not doing that?
38) There are many Evangelic miracles showing the spontaneity of a
memory, neither built nor adapted, which nevertheless is engraved in
the memory of those who were present to the event. It is from
conveyed small details that the truth of the memory of a lived and
handed down episode transpires.
Getting down to the credit card gripe… it isn’t just little old ladies
being taken in by paying the minimum payment. This is big business
…hooking college kids (who apparently are trusting and do NOT understand
credit cards) on credit. We had to rescue our daughter from 4 different
credit card companies (although at least two of them were related ) because
she made minimum payments. As soon as they maxed-out, more credit cards were
mailed to her, even without her asking! On top of her college loans, she was
thousands in debt. The amount asked for as "minimum payment" did not nearly
cover : the over-charge fee, the protection fee ( a scam in itself!), the
late fee, and the interest. College students are so busy doing papers,
research, and squeezing in some work and social life that they usually just
pay the minimum without seeing how much trouble they are in. My daughter is
no dummy, and graduated very high in her college class in a specialized
science course that demands a lot of respect. She was just young and
believed that she was keeping up (barely!). Poorer but wiser!!
Righy you are and thank you for your elaboration.
