Who Am I to Judge?, God's Disciple, That's Who

I am so tired of hearing people make statements such as “Who am I to judge?” or questioning someone on their judgement of another. I do agree that only God can judge our hearts as individuals, and he surely will upon our deaths. This is called the “Particular Judgement”.... (www.catholic365.com)

Seeking God’s Word this morning to begin my day, I opened the Bible, and It fell open to Tobit. I have read this story many times, and wondered what is in Tobit that I haven’t read before. “Really, like you never get new meanings and messages from other places in the Bible you have read or heard bef...

The View From the Back

I’ve been sitting in the front pews all my life. I love being close to the altar and the action of the Mass. I sat in the front as a child with my parents. I sat in the front as a parent so my sons could see what was going on. I sat in the front with my primary students throughout the many decad... (www.catholic365.com)

Thank you for being you

Instead of ‘Christmas crackers’, the parish priest had bought ‘Christian crackers’ for the parish party. So instead of wearing paper hats, everyone wore paper halos instead and received miniature plastic saints, and instead of side-splitting jokes, they had to meditate on mind-bending religious epig...

Doing God's work

It's a very lofty goal to accomplish all in this life God has in mind for us. I can't even make a list of all the things God wants for us here on earth.

One of my favorite things to do that I don’t get to do much at all anymore is fishing. There is just something about being out at a lake, pond or river and casting my line out and waiting to see what happens. The anticipation of watching my line or bobber and waiting for that right moment to set the... (www.catholic365.com)

One of the greatest moments in anybody's developing experience is when he no longer tries to hide from himself but determines to get acquainted with himself as he really is
