“Thank you, Jesus” or “Why me?”
“Bel esprit” or a crab tree?
Make joy your caller ID!
True joy!…not hypberbole’s!
The cross is our guarantee,
To stretch diastole’s,
To be with Christ and Marie,
Both here…and eternally!
Trusting in God
TKC!
“I do so dearly believe that no half-heartedness and no worldly fear must turn us aside from following the light unflinchingly.” J.R.R. Tolkien
St. Paul reminds us, “I can do all things in Him in whom I put my trust.” Put your confidence in God, remind yourself that he is in the boat as your journey through life, and never, ever doubt his very personal and very intense love for you.
God bless,

Happy tears
TKC!
“I will not say, do not weep, for not all tears are an evil.” J.R.R. Tolkien
My first official Mass with my family was on December 25, 1998. As I lifted up the host for the first time, I felt tears welling up in my eyes…13 and a half years of preparation and the moment finally arrived, so special! This photo was taken shortly after the Mass at St. Isidore’s in Rome.
An 80 year old priest accompanied me during this Mass, so I truly felt the passing of the torch!

Too busy to pray?
TKC!
“If you’re too busy to pray…you’re too busy” St. Mother Teresa
Anywhere, anytime, God is always ready and extremely happy to listen to you and help you with all your needs and concerns. Is he on your daily schedule?

Surrender to God
TKC!
“..fallen man is not simply an imperfect creature who needs improvement: he is a rebel who must lay down his arms.” CS Lewis
Which doors in the depths of your heart are locked? Where are you not “willing to go”, even though you know God wants this from you? We need to repeat in prayer, with the words of Jesus himself, “Lord, not my will but your will be done!”
God bless,
Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
