I Could Have Praised More

August 5th marks the fifth anniversary of my mother’s death. Not a day goes by in which I am not aware that life is without her now. I miss her, I will always miss her. I miss the Dots and donuts. Miss the far-too-pink-pink lipstick she was never without. I miss the licked fingertips, circling plate... (www.catholic365.com)

Not Fond Of Jane, BUT...

Shake Off the Scent of the Red Herring

Many of us have been there before. You begin an argument with, say, a Protestant, concerning the Eucharist. You try to show him that Jesus, in John 6, reveals that we are to eat his body and drink his blood, while the Protestant attempts to prove that such verses are mere symbolism....

How The Cherubim Witness To Mary's Immaculate Conception

The specific defense of the Immaculate Conception I intend to give here is the witness of the cherubim in Scripture. I find it to be a strong signpost pointing to Mary's incompatibility with sin. And since I have not seen this angle presented explicitly, I've elected to review it here.... (www.catholic365.com)

What is Tough, God Makes Easy

Recently I wrote an article about facing health problems and the conflict of staying sick so you can stop working and going on disability—OR—asking God, believing God’s promises –and pray for healing of all that is wearing me down, and causing discomfort in my daily life. Well, as always God gave me... (www.catholic365.com)

Forgetting to Allow God In

God made us for human contact. God wanted us to have relationships. He wanted us to feel emotions, but more importantly God wanted us to love and made each one of us perfect in the eyes of Him.

God vs. Satan; Who is Winning?

There is absolutely no doubt for me that God is in control and has already triumphed in the battle between good and evil. God is pure goodness, light and truth.

An Unexplained Moment, A Gift From God

Years ago, I had one of those unexplained moments that caught me completely off-guard. Some would call it supernatural, something from beyond or even just my imagination. Though I don't understand it, I would call it a gift from God.... (www.catholic365.com)

Five good minutes with God - Fortunately, Unfortunately

One of my favorite books when I was little was titled “Fortunately, Unfortunately”. I remember it from way back when I was young and I also remember reading it to my kids when they were young. If you’ve not heard of it, the gist of the book is very simple: a boy boards on an airplane to travel to a... (www.catholic365.com)

Pope Francis' Message is Romans 14

I, like many people, love Pope Francis. He’s talking a new talk and walking a new walk. But the truth is what he’s saying really isn’t new. It’s more a case of what is old being new again.... (www.catholic365.com)

Pope St. Evaristus

Like the man/God he followed, Evaristus was a Jew, born in Bethlehem. His father, Juda, was of Greek origin, but lived in Bethlehem, only a few miles from the temple in Jerusalem, the goal of all good Jews. Evidently, Juda moved his family from the town, probably just before the Romans destroyed Jer... (www.catholic365.com)

We are saved by faith and works, in a manner of speaking

Catholic doctrine says: ...we are therefore said to be justified gratuitously, because none of those things that precede justification, whether faith or works, merit the grace of justification. (Trent VI, Chapter VIII) Therefore, it is true, that we are saved by faith and works, but only in a mann... (www.catholic365.com)

The Catholic Teachings On The Angels – Part 5: Why The Angels Remain Loyal To God

Some time at the beginning of time, the angel Lucifer became prideful and envious and fell into sin. This sin led to him rebelling against God and a third of the Angelic Host following him into sin and rebellion (Revelation 12:9-4). It is speculated that God had revealed the Plan of the Incarnatio... (www.catholic365.com)
