Good morning my Brothers and Sisters
Today's reflection
It has not yet been disclosed what we are to be. We know that when it is made known, we shall be like Him.
When we love someone we desire every aspect of who and what they are. We abandon ourselves and live for the other. This is true and real devotion. Selfishness falls away. The scoffs and mocking of others have no power over you. There is no shame in this love as it is of genuine giving of self to the other.
Is there anyone who has given more to us than our Lord Jesus? Yet while we were still sinners He laid down His life for us. He gives repeatedly of Himself and we take for ourselves. How do we return this love? How much of ourselves do we offer to others? The day will come when this life will end and we will face eternity. Will you join Christ and become as He is? His love is so vast and complete that He will give to us for all eternity that which we desire the most. Is it Jesus?
Words can deceive if not followed by works. Is your life one of words only? If you desire to be with Christ and be as Him for eternity you must reflect this desire in your works now, here, with those around you. As our Lord teaches use what you did for the least, you did for me." Enter the life of a Christ Crusader. 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...
