Good morning my Brothers and Sisters
Today's reflection
At once, the man's ears were opened, his toung was loosened, and he spoke properly.
Consider how a child learns to speak. Consider how it begins as mimicking those around and combined with the desire to imitate the parents the child becomes a reflection of that which influences the most. Certainly this process may repeat itself as life progresses forward. So much worldly influences. Now look around in the world today. Do you see God in the conversation of society? Profanity has risen to the level of normal. As the profane has been embraced the holy has been rejected. Why behave as if there is any suprise that the elements of beauty are difficult to find? That which we take in whether beauth or profane will shape our thoughts. The order and structure of the Divine becomes chaos and demonic. Speach, action, design, relationship, are all related. Each to it's own place not as humanity declares but as God has determined it to be. When you accept the will of God over your own and stop falling for the misdirection of the devil you will truly find the peace you desire. Do not be afraid to push back of the world. Trust and live for the Lord.
God bless you all and remember that God loves you and so do I
"Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them." Matthew 18:15-20
Gathering in Christ's name is submitting to his will. We don't invoke the name of God for selfish purposes, this is taking the Lord’s name in vain. What do you really want? Do you truly want more stuff or is it peace. The peace that comes from knowing and living in harmony with the God of the Universe.
Ask for wisdom, courage, humility, love and it will be given to you. These and other virtues are freely offered knowing that they will bring you closer in relationship with Jesus.
Gather and be yoked with believers. Bind yourself to the truth. Seek the Kingdom of God first. This is the path to eternal life and the adventure of today. Do not be afraid.
God bless you all and remember that God loves you and so do I. Memento Mori

Good morning my Brothers and Sisters. Today's reflection
"Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 18:1-5, 10, 12-14
Trusting is not something easily done. Especially for men who seek control or women who have been abused. Today's society has many who struggle with depression and anxiety because in part there is a feeling of hopelessness and fear that the weight of the world is carried by them alone.
When we enter into relationship with Jesus we receive a promise that never fails. A promise that is eternal coming from the source of all love and goodness.
Today is the day to let go of your fear and trust in the Father's plan for your life. Run towards Jesus and never leave his side. Allow the Blessed Mother to comfort you In her embrace. Learn from the Saints who walked this same pilgrimage in life and faced all the fears and doubts...
