Good morning my Brothers and Sisters
Today's reflection
Even though my father and my mother may abandon me, the Lord will receive me.
We are all sinful fallen people living in a broken world. While some parents offer their child love and acceptance there are those who don't. This loss of love can become a crushing weight and could be unbearable. That is only if you do not understand and realize that your creation is not of earth but of heaven.
Your spirit is of the image and likeness of God. This is your true identity and who you are. You are a child of God. Call out to your Father in heaven. Call out to your Mother Mary in heaven. Call out to your Lord Jesus, brother a friend and He will save you from all of your pain. You have a family who awaits your voice. There is an entire community who lived this life with all of its difficulties called the Saints who want to be your inspiration and teach you how they found peace in this depraved world.
We all have a choice to either drown in the pain and abandonment of this world or reach out to Jesus and take Him by the hand and follow Him. He is the Way, Truth, and Life. Do not be afraid.
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...
