Avoiding Satan’s snares
“Life is indeed terribly complicated—to a man who has lost his principles.” C.S. Lewis
Small ethical concessions here and there, can eventually lead you to be completely entangled in the devil’s web. Watch and pray, and take advantage of the Sacrament of Reconciliation to free you from Satan’s snares!

Closeness to Christ
“If you want to get warm you must stand near the fire: if you want to be wet you must get into the water. If you want joy, power, peace, eternal life, you must get close to, or even into, the thing that has them.” G.K. Chesterton
Get close to Christ’s Sacred Heart, that burning fire of love…and you will feel the change from within!
God bless,

Healthy dialogue
“The thing I hate about an argument is that it always interrupts a discussion.” C.S. Lewis
Do you try to understand the other’s person’s perspective or do you mentally shut down and simply endure their verbiage, until you can make your point?
God bless,
Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
