Thank you all for your prayers and I know that my best friend is incredibly touched by your prayers for his dear departed father. Today is the wake and tomorrow the funeral, so please remember Thomas (that’s his name), especially during this time. .

This whole tragedy has had me thinking a great deal about life and death and our purpose in it all. I mean, it simply comes down to the fact that if this, the Catholic Faith, Christ’s story of redemption and His call for our holiness, is all true then if we aren’t obsessed with it, then we’re missing out on everything and living empty lives. We have to take this all seriously. .
.
We only get one life and society in its music and media tells us that because of that we should “live it up”. We should enjoy as much pleasure as possible in the short period of time we have. Sure. That makes sense, I guess, if you believe that we exploded from nothing. I’m sorry, but I just don’t buy it. One good reason is that when I see people, myself included, that have given into living a pleasure filled life, they aren’t happy and are left depressed and unfulfilled. The quote of St. Augustine comes to mind and it is possibly my favorite quote of all time, “Thou hast made us for Thyself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it finds its rest in Thee.” We were made for God. So if He has no place in your life, then you aren’t living at all! So let us put God back in our lives, first, where He belongs and live a full life so that one day like my dear friend’s father we may meet Christ face to face and give an account of how we lived for Him! .

Keep fighting, keep the Faith and God Love you!

There is nothing so great as the Eucharist. If God had something more precious, He would have given it to us.

“Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.”- Matthew 6:34 “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.”- Romans 8:18

The Armor of God: Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people (Ephesians 6:10-18).

St. Thomas, the doubting apostle who put his hand in the side of the risen Christ, pray for us!
