Letting anger cool off

by

Thy Kingdom Come!

Dear Friends, in Christ,

“The surest safeguard against anger is to let it cool off.” St. John Bosco

       Sometimes, you just need to sleep on it, to pray on it, to wait on it…don’t let the devil get the best of you!

Something new and better

by

Thy Kingdom Come!

Dear Friends in Christ,

        Mixing blue with yellow paint makes green.  Once you are married, you become something unique and different, and you cannot back to who you were.  Embrace this new and richer reality with love!

God bless,

Fr. Michael Sliney, LC

Anxiety

by

Thy Kingdom Come!

Dear Friends in Christ,

     “Anxiety is the greatest evil that can befall a soul, except sin. God commands you to pray, but He forbids you to worry.”  St. Francis de Sales

     Anxiety is like a fly in the room.  Sometimes it buzzes close by, it may even land on your nose, or it may fly off into the corner, but it is always potentially there…the key is to focus on the task at hand and not let it consume your time and energy.  Pray to God, trust in God, and don’t focus on the fly!  Problems may or may not occur, but your prayer will give you the necessary wisdom and strength to get through it…whatever it is!

Th aroma of Christ

Dear Friends in Christ,

     As Christians, our words should reflect “the fragrance of Christ” (2 Cor. 2:15), and we should not be afraid to challenge those in our circles who lack self control in this area.  Once as a young kid, I said a bad word after missing a shot during a bumper pool game and my mom called me upstairs and had me clean out my mouth with a bar of soap…more importantly, she led by example.

God bless,
