Jesus wants to personally give you mercy. Will you let Him?

We live very busy lives. Adding another thing to our already busy schedules is rather difficult. Experiencing God’s infinite mercy in a personal way though, sounds like a great reason to add to our schedules. Yes, but what if it may cause us to be uncomfortable?... (www.catholic365.com)

The Bread: Symbolic or Substantial?

Not long ago was the Solemnity of Corpus Christi. The bread as the Body of Christ. Inciting the priest to teach just what we ingested when we take that consecrated host into ourselves. We were on the central coast at that time and heard two, maybe three homilies on the real presence. And then anothe... (www.catholic365.com)

An Old Man and a Little Girl

“ Lord, have mercy on me!” I thought as I scrambled into the pew looking appropriately and mournfully dressed but not as respectfully recollected as I would like to have been for Mr. James’ funeral.... (www.catholic365.com)

Thou Shall Not Hate.

The Ten Commandments are often looked upon negatively because they tell us what not to do. The sound like restrictions on our freedom. Everything has a price, though. To love, you must give up hate. To hate, you must give up love. To read this, you must give me $2.... (www.catholic365.com)

I have to admit, I got caught up in my electronics, wanting time by myself, and just wanted to run and hide away for a while. I don’t know why that is, because I always regret that feeling after the fact. I regret what I have missed by wanting to do things on my own. That selfishness gets in the wa... (www.catholic365.com)

‘The Desire for God'

We can meet Jesus in every moment of our lives. Jesus can be met in the poor person, the prisoner, the beggar, in any of our neighbour. In every person Jesus draws us closer to God, because in that person there is Jesus, and if we love that person we are loving Jesus, and by loving Jesus....He draws... (www.catholic365.com)

For me, personally, letting go of pent up anger towards someone is hard sometimes. I have written about finally letting that go before. My natural instinct is to come back at someone in a spiteful way.... (www.catholic365.com)

The Dragon, the Woman, and all of Church History

In preterism, the Woman of Apocalypse 12 is mostly the Virgin, and most of the dragon scenes are symbolizing early events in Mary and Jesus’ life as the dragon pursued them with Herod and the wicked empire, etc. In futurism, the Fundamentalists think the Woman is modern Israel, etc, which is absurd...

Compromise where you can, where you can't, don't compromise.

There must be integrity, as it is put in this gospel by Jesus, between what is practiced and what is preached. With this demand Jesus issues a warning and promise: “whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do so will be called least in the Kingdom of heaven”, while...

If God is Love...

I was thinking about the concept of love and about the concept of grace. And it occurred to me that the two are inseparable. Actually, it may not be possible to love without grace. Grace is the infusing of God's love into our lives and our actions, and it is culminated in our acceptance and applicat... (www.catholic365.com)

How to do small things with great love, even when we are tired

Wrestling a toddler into his diaper is the worst time to consider one’s current status. And yet there I was, attempting to stave off my son’s third Huggie death roll, staring darkly out the window at the hydrangeas below. I was done. Done with the diapering. Done with the nagging. Done with the u... (www.catholic365.com)

Unplugging from Technology; Plugging into Life

I often hear of people taking a break from technology, unplugging for a few days or weeks, or giving up Facebook for Lent. My thought has always been “I don’t really need to do that. I use technology as a tool, but I’m not particularly attached to it.” I am usually the last person to get a new piece... (www.catholic365.com)

The Church's Charism of Infallibility and the Real Presence of the Eucharist

Many Catholics today realize how important Chapter 6 of the Gospel of St. John is to our understanding of the Eucharist. Many Protestants realize this importance as well, but it seems so hard for them to understand this clear doctrine because of other reservations regarding the Church founded by Chr...

Society does not care how many sermons you preach to them. The only sermon they'll hear is how you live your life in front of them.

We lose our saltiness – so to speak – our distinctiveness as Sons and Daughters of God – when we simply blend in with the world… when we look and sound and act as everybody else…... (www.catholic365.com)
