The Bible, Who Knew?

I have been loving the Lord my whole life but, I never knew Him personally! I thought I did, but I was wrong. I always thought God was leading me when I remembered to ask Him for direction. I knew God knew me because I have had a blessed life.... (www.catholic365.com)

Examining Marriage in Light of Ephesians 5

One of my favorite and one of the most basic documents regarding the basis for Christian marriage is Ephesians 5:21-33, “21 Be subject to one another out of reverence for Christ. 22 Wives, be subject to your husbands, as to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head o...

Even in a Concrete Jungle, Look Up & Give Thanks

Since I was a little girl, I have felt content with what I have materially. Even now, when my nine kids ask me what I want for Christmas, I pause for a moment with a blank mind. I have to search to come up with a list. Rather a strange state to be in because this is not the result of spiritual striv... (www.catholic365.com)

Are You Postponing Joy This Lent?

Don’t postpone joy. I had to smile when I saw that bumper sticker slapped on the back of a car whose owner had obviously postponed washing it for quite some time. Said car (with me behind it) sat completely stopped on the interstate during the height of my morning commute. The stalled traffic gave m... (www.catholic365.com)
