Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.

A man arrives in heaven, and St. Peter is showing him around. After a while, they pass by a large warehouse, and the man inquires what is inside. “Oh, you don’t want to see that,” protests St. Peter. The man’s curiosity is piqued, and he demands to see inside. St. Peter opens the door, and they see ... (www.catholic365.com)

Of Bathrooms and Circuses

In 1st Corinthians 13:4-8, there are great phrases about love, and what it should be. However, in this world today and based on what I see, I really question people’s actions.
