Thy Kingdom Come!
Dear Friends in Christ,
“Jesus says, “My child, know that the greatest obstacles to holiness are discouragement and an exaggerated anxiety…sensitiveness and discouragement are the fruits of self-love.” St. Faustina
I have often used the expression, “You need to pound through difficulties.” Life can certainly throw some painful and surprising punches at times (health issues, relationship issues, misunderstandings, etc…), but God wants us to go forward and to advance, and not allow the difficult circumstances to drain valuable time and energy. When times get tough, our sincere love for Christ and trust in Christ has to kick in hard!
God bless,
Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
