“Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you.” (1 Peter 5:7)
There are a lot of reasons today why people can be filled with anxiety. Turn to Jesus, bask in the glow of his loving glance and know that he will always be their to support you…in whatever may happen.
God bless,

“Every Christian needs a half hour for prayer each day except when he is busy -then he needs an hour.” St. Francis DeSales
Prayer makes you more effective; you think better, and you find a fortitude and energy level that a double expresso or energy bar can’t give you. Allow God into your busy schedule…he wants to help!!

“The deeds you do may be the only sermon some persons will hear today.” St. Francis of Assisi
It should not be the exclusive job of professional porters to hold the door for people. Make the effort, smile and say with kindness, “after you, please”…these small gestures can make a huge difference in someone’s day!

“Pain is never permanent.” St. Teresa of Avila
People of deep Faith strive to sing and dance in the rain, knowing this harder love is more virtuous, and that brighter days are just around the corner!

“We must remember that each one of our children is destined for a mission in life…there is some special work for God, which will remain undone unless he or she does it, some place in life, which no one else can fill.” Janet Erskine Stuart, R.S.C.J.
St. Ann and St. Joachim were the parents of our Blessed Mother…behind every great saint, there are usually very holy parents! Happy Feast of the Immaculate Conception!!

“A man’s spiritual kin are his nearest relations.” G.K. Chesterton
Iron sharpens iron. Imagine the spiritual conversations these two saints had together! Do your “best” friends spiritually inspire and challenge you?

“The great majority of people will go on observing forms that cannot be explained; they will keep Christmas Day with Christmas gifts and Christmas benedictions; they will continue to do it; and some day suddenly wake up and discover why.” G.K. Chesterton
Keep Christ in Christmas, and please educate your kids in the Faith to help them see the incredible gift of Christ’s coming to earth! We should all be asking Christ right now, what special gift he would like from us during this Advent season? Greater patience? Greater kindness to one particular person? Ask him…and listen, He will let you know!
