Visiting Jesus

by

“There is nothing like looking, if you want to find something. You certainly usually find something, if you look, but it is not always quite the something you were after.” J.R.R. Tolkien

     Anytime you walk into a Catholic Church, you are walking directly into the presence of Jesus Christ, body and soul, humanity and divinity.  Regardless of how you feel or what you seem to experience, you will always walk out with grace, which will give you the wisdom to know what God wants and the strength to consistently go there.

God bless,

Fr. Michael Sliney, LC

It doesn’t end here!

by

“End? No, it doesn’t end here. Death is just another path, one which we must all take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all change to silver glass… And then you see it… White shores, and beyond, a far green country, under a swift sunrise.” J.R.R. Tolkien

    Every so often, I find it very therapeutic to stroll around a cemetery, reflecting on this all important fact of my immortality and the possibility of eternal life with God in heaven.

God bless,

Encountering difficulties

by

TKC!

“When you encounter difficulties and contradictions, do not try to break them, but bend them with gentleness and time.” St. Francis de Sales

    Patient endurance out of love for Christ is the key…a gentle response and waiting for the storm to pass, eventually leads to calm and blue skies.

God bless,

Loving God when it gets tough

by

TKC!

“A sign that we love truly love God is that we love Him the same in all occasions.” St. Francis de Sales

    Do we thank God for the tougher moments, for giving us an opportunity to grow in virtue and test our moral fortitude?  When the going gets tough, the true Christian tries to love God even more!

God bless,
