Do We Have Courage to be Catholic?

Greetings in Jesus and Mary...

This post is needed today as we see more and more attacks on Catholic Christians (even within the Church). There is more and more NEWS out there about how the world is imploding....the church is imploding...our families are imploding.  What should be our action plan? We are to listen to St. Teresa of Avila who said...."because Christ has so few friends..we are to be good ones!" Now more than ever do we need to give God EVERYTHING! We are to keep the "practice of the presence of God" throughout our day. We are to make more Spiritual Communions than we have ever made. We need, of course, to go to Mass as frequently as we possibly can. I think all of us can be motivated with the knowledge of what we see all around us. The reasons are mounting each day.

We should all consider silencing the news of the world right now and give those few extra moments we get from that action to God. We do not know how much time we each individually have left on earth. We need to live like saints for the salvation of souls and for the glory of God. How sad the Heart of Jesus is to see so much evil and not enough souls giving Him 100% of their day. Below are two videos to help jump start this idea if you feel called to give God more than you are doing now.

​Also there is a PDF to print to help advance in ideas for yourself and your family taken from a fairly new website out of Ireland that I highly recommend. This man is trying to get married couples with families to become truly Catholic again. This is very heroic and he has good materials to watch to help us grow in the Faith (as well as a book to purchase).

May we pray to Our Lady of Sorrows, whose month we are now in to honor her sorrows. May we pray that She give us the grace to be the saints that Jesus wants us to be and to be the good friends that St. Teresa of Jesus was referring to.

Sorrowful  Lady of the Most Holy Rosary, pray for us!!
