Silently stressing? Count your blessings!
Down in the dumps? Look for Christ’s fist pump!
Tired of the fight? Pray harder for light!
Pity party…”poor me”? Nobility!
Stuck in sin? Confession will help you win!
Wake up, it’s time! Follow Christ’s paradigm!
“We become taller when we bow.” C.S. Lewis
Do you believe and acknowledge the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist? Do you show it through a fervent genuflection?
God bless,

“And there, right in the middle of it, I find ‘Forgive us our sins as we forgive those that sin against us.’ There is no slightest suggestion that we are offered forgiveness on any other terms. It is made perfectly clear that if we do not forgive we shall not be forgiven.” G.K. Chesterton
God forgives so much in our lives…do we reciprocate in forgiving others?
“Joy is one of the best safeguards against temptation. The devil is a carrier of dust and dirt; he uses every chance to throw what he has at us. A joyful heart knows how to protect herself from such dirt. Jesus can take full possession of our soul only if it surrenders itself joyfully.” –St. Teresa of Calcutta

“Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle.” Abraham Lincoln
I strongly recommend this book to parents. I thank God for the gift of a mom and dad who instilled the virtue of “grit” in me from an early age…we all need to “fan our gifts into a flame” for God’s glory!
God bless,

“God knows our situation; He will not judge us as if we had no difficulties to overcome. What matters is the sincerity and perseverance of our will to overcome them.” C.S. Lewis
Sometimes the best prayer are tears and a cry for help…God knows and sees everything, but he wants us to keep going and lean more into him when it gets tough!
God bless,
