Eight days with Jesus…my BEST Friend!
Suddenly…coming to an end.
Beautiful…wish I could extend!
He tweaked me…asking me to bend.
For my sins…time to make amends.
Intimacy?…need to transcend!
Heart and soul…to him must ascend!
His Blessed Mother will attend!
The extra special dividend?
Christ becomes “REAL”…no pretend!!
Leaving for an 8 day retreat
Instruments of Christ’s love
“Yours are the eyes through which Christ looks compassion into the world. Yours are the feet with which Christ walks to do good. Yours are the hands with which Christ blesses the world.” St. Teresa of Avila
Especially when you are in front of a difficult person…that’s when Jesus’ love really wants to kick in!!
God bless,
Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
Choosing friends wisely
Dream big
“You pay God a compliment by asking great things of Him.” St. Teresa of Avila
Entrust your apostolic endeavors, your efforts to evangelize, your striving for a particular virtue to prayer, especially when in adoration in front of Our Lord. He really wants to help, but he needs to see the strength of our desire and our trust in Him.
God bless,
Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
Always higher!
Fighting for God?
“You cannot love a thing without wanting to fight for it.” G.K. Chesterton
Empty pews, heroin overdoses, atheism and hedonism, over sexed culture…Christ’s heart is hurting with all of this confusion and lack of love in the world…are you fighting to make a dent in the culture for him?
God bless,
Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
God is our Father
Everything is a gift
TKC!
“The great saint may be said to mix all his thoughts with thanks. All goods look better when they look like gifts.” G.K. Chesterton
Beautiful but simple way to see reality…even suffering and loss can be a tremendous gift to our souls, seen through the eyes of faith and trust in God’s loving plan!
God bless,
Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
