Wen in an uncomfortable position with others
....b peaceful...dont allow anything to steal ur peace...stay in God's Loving Presence....His Glance Alone Counts an can keep us...an then nothing said or done can affect us ....remember...Reply...not React😉🙏💒
Caution: Wen we want to serve in every ministry...
Pray to God what ministries He wants from you. It is not good to be in many groups and not a master at any of them. Pray where God wants you and do what He says. Sometimes we Christians Catholics believe that the more things we participate in the more God is pleased and that is often not the case. Especially if we cannot give 100% to where we are both at home first then at work and then in the various ministries.
We have to keep our eye on whether our involvement in many activities is a bit obsessive compulsive. We have to see whether we think we have to earn heaven and maybe we think more is better. we should discern what does God want us to do and often He prefers us to stay home and love on our family then to be running around wearing ourselves out thinking that our salvation is something we have to do rather than a gift that God already did for us. I will pray for you in this regard. As we mature I have found people require more silence.. less activites.. a desire for intimate Union with Christ rather than the social aspects of groups and doing doing doing. Please don't do what i tell you ....take this information i have given and go to God and pray and you will know where he wants you to be. Praised b Jesus Christ now am forever!

Friday an fasting
Today is Friday and it has been a long time practice from the early church fathers and mothers that Christians fasted on Fridays. The Scriptures say the three-fold cord to win over the Heart of God and please Him is prayer ..fasting and almsgiving. Too often we make a goal too hard to achieve with fasting. Fasting can be pushing away one cookie or driving in the car without the radio on or not watching your favorite TV show. We start small and then build upon it. This helps us become more mindful of God throughout the day. Let's try today 2 fast in one simple way and offer it in Thanksgiving to Jesus for all that He suffered... taking our place on the Cross on Good Friday. The Gospel for today was from Luke chapter 5: 33 to 39 . One Line from that says.. "but the days will come when the Bridegroom is taken away from them then they will fast in those days." Try to read the entire Passage wen u can. And in this practice of fasting we aim to become new wineskins able to receive the New Wine that God wants to pour into us and into our lives. Praised be Jesus Christ now and forever!!!

To all Caregivers...an Disabled
What I have found in my own life as a caregiver is people r afraid to get involved with anyone especially if they have a seizure disorder... neurological impairment...
vision/perception issues... Neuropsychiatric issues and mental illness.. including but not limited to ..anxiety, depression ,bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, dementia, memory loss, Alzheimer's....of any age...They are scared by what they don't know or understand and don't have the gift to love someone through yet They can also be very judgmental and opinionated when they know nothing of what is going on. Sometimes it is just too painful for them to see someone they care about suffering so much. ..an sometimes it is just plain neglect an lack of compassion..But watever the case may be...I totally understand one's sense of Abandonment from many people. i have shared much with regard to some of the similar sufferings that we encountered as people caring for someone so very sick physically ,neurologically and/or mentally. ...Be patient...serve with all ur heart as if for Jesus Himself without focusing on who is not there .For in the end we caregivers an those we serve r granted memories that will last into Eternity. God knows all we do an the rewards both now an later promise to b OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!
til next let us pray for all caregivers...an all the sick an disabled....asking God for Healing an Strength...PRESS ON!

Dont b cheep with air conditioning in churches
Church leaders...plz do not b opposed to using ur air conditioning... Plz consider putting AC on early enough to make it comfortable for ur congregation. It will help people feel comfortable an b able to focus more on prayer. Most services have older people attending..an many with serious health issues..most people cannot tolerate high humidity with heat .. Some churches consider it a ministry to keep church cool for poor people to come an get some relief from oppressive heat even during weekdays. People come into church but if ac is not on, sometimes they leave an go to other churches or go home ...an some elderly wont come to church because they feel they cannot count on the heat an ac to b at a level where they can b safe. Praying for u as u continue to take care of ur congregations which is no easy job!
Become Intercessors... 3 or more people same day weekly
Let us renew our commitment of serious Warfare for ourselves our spouses and our children. May we all be healed... saved.. come to know Jesus as our personal Lord and Savior and stay truly committed to the Holy Roman Catholic church and its teachings. May our marriages be healed ...resurrected restored ...brought a flame again ...May our children..spouses and we ourselves become the saints that God created us to be so we may one day share the Face-to-face vision of God in heaven....

90...weary...preparing for death...unsure if still Catholic
A note to one in their 90s who is tired an weary an wants to go to God. Often the case for those in their 90s especially those ill an those poorly supported by family an friends. The danger comes wen they may rush God's Hand instead of waiting for His Perfect Time . But this person is wrestling with whether she is still Catholic...an so my response...
"It is with great Love that I write this note to you. I remember you vividly. A woman of great strength..praise God. a leader of your family. And although our church leaders and members often show they're uglier sides as in many places of worship an society today, we remain Catholic because we fortunately have Truth in Fullness. We r The Church, sinners an saints. You were baptized, made Confession, Holy Communion and Confirmation. You are a sacramental Catholic and that makes you a part of our church. Your Love of the Blessed Mother, your parents & godparents intervention and example to you says you are Catholic no matter what words you use, you are ours. That doesn't mean a perfect Church that doesn't mean a perfect life it means that you can't undo the wonderful Miracles God has done in your life. And the fact that you sacrificed greatly to give your children faith & an education in Catholic schools speaks Worlds 2 me and I know to God. So please stand proudly and Proclaim your being Catholic again, please receive the gifts of the church of healing in confession, anointing of the sick an Holy Communion and the Apostolic Pardon. You deserve these gifts , the sacraments of strength to help you continue to walk through your life until the moment God says come home. Death is like walking through a doorway, you close your eyes to this world and then open them to the Face of God. How beautiful this transition will be for all of us. Praying for u. Courage. Live cause neither ur doctors, u, nor hospice can predict that moment an it is not our place to rush.
God has deigned to have u alive for a purpose...you still have work to do...luv on those u c...pray for a world in great suffering..beg God to become the saint u were created to b. After death many souls wished they had one more minute to Luv on God an make a contribution. Let God worry about the wen an how...trust Him...dont let mere humans dictate their theories wen God Almighty is The Greatest..All Powerful Father Who loves u an calls u His Own. Live....live well...an then wenever death comes u will b ready...peaceful..knowing Heaven will b urs. I luv u. I promise u my prayers an support. Feel free to call me anytime if u would like to talk ...
B proud of a job well done an still being done ...because u live...u share...u bless...an ur mission is still not done yet..continue to b everyone's teacher...dont rush God....b encouraged an hopeful...
We trust God to handle everything! God bless!"
Plz keep this woman an her family an all those in similar situations with their elders close in ur prayers!

Love is our Signature...Feast if Corpus Christi!
I watched a movie Peter on EWTN last night. It is a mini series and part two will play next Saturday night at 8 p.m. eastern time. Peter said 2 lines in the movie about Love...an they reasonated with me. I thought i would share them with u .
'The 1st sign we will c to recognize each other as Jesus' followers is the Love we give to one another.'
'Jesus' voice stays inside u like a flame u could never put
out. '
Let's let Love b our signature.
Today is the Feast of Corpus Christi...we Catholics celebrate The Body an Blood of Jesus today....wat He left us on Holy Thursday...Jesus said, "DO THIS IN REMEMBRANCE OF ME!" ......look for the Processions...some beautiful customs an traditions we have as we rejoice that Christ left Himself here in the Form of Bread an Wine to strengthen an sustain us thru life....to help us perfect Love in our lives so we can become more an more like Jesus!
This site is loaded with articles an quotes on The Real Presence of Jesus.....take some
Time to read some of it. It will help us Catholics become more fervant wen we receive Holy Communion an it will help those from other faiths to understand why we do wat we do.

Look for virtue.. learn from other religions an Love
I wanted to mention something...at times we can bring up another's Faith in a very negative lite. i recognize that we all think, we have the Truth in Fullness... but often these comments r not brought up to instruct us on the differences of another religion but randomly thrown in our preaching or conversations an done sarcastically at times in hate an prejudice. I would like to suggest a more loving approach. It is good for us to learn the truth about other religions an necessary to prevemt us from being confused an to b informed, but always with the love an respect Jesus would want us to have with any other human being. St Francis taught us this by example wen meeting with Sultan Malik al-Kamil, the Muslim leader, in peaceful dialogue during war. We have much to learn from all people an all faiths..an ex: .our Muslim an Hindu friends teach us much in regard to modesty...
discipline in praying regularly an often..
obedience..
family life..etc...an of course they to can learn many things from us too.This is with all different believers an faiths if we r open. Just something to consider. Seek Virtue....an adopt it fir urself!

Married couples struggling
12 am on Mother's Day nite...i stumbled on the movie Fireproof which i have not seen in yrs. I was tired an ready to go to bed but my heart stood up to watch it an wen i see anything regarding marriage i think an pray hard for all marriages. And so i stood up til 2 am...cried thru the movie interceding for all of us...together..separated...an even divorced since even divorced couples r still married in the eyes of the Roman Catholic Church. Any chance u mite consider watching it together with ur spouse?...an maybe ...just maybe read The Love Dare book one day at a time??........i dont believe in coincidences..
an stumbling upon my friend singing that song I WILL BE HERE an this movie the next day was very unusual....so i suspect God is trying to
get our attention...i actually loved the Love Dare materials because they r applicable in all areas of life in learning how to really Love others not just limited in marriage. I am looking for my copy to reread an try to apply....maybe u can do the same.

that our work is The Greatest Work on earth...GOD'S WORK!
Don't u give up...don't u give in...strengthen those weary knees an dig ur heels in ..for our work has a Payoff beyond our greatest imagining...
There is a Heaven...this earth is not it....earth is a passing thru to a Much Greater Reality!!! Hold on...Courage...

Spiritual planning
Sometimes it is better not to meet over lunch for spiritual planning...but rather meet in a quiet room...pray an lite a candle...read a Scripture an then brainstorm in The Spirit...a far better way to really hear from God ...til next time...
Mentally ill
People with severe mental illness often feel others do not believe they r really ill. They no most speak as if their walk...life an sufferings ..r in vain or have had no value. It is hurtful wen someone illudes to the fact that another's sufferings could b gone in an instant by their laying of hands or some other idea like tough love. God is in charge even wen we dont understand or disagree with wat is going on in someone elses life. It is not unusual for people to refer to the mentally ill persons life as a "shame"...as if they have no value...that surely was not a word Jesus would have said to any one. Sometimes people need to gently walk thru life.. ...which includes some work an suffering.
All God's children continue to evolve in the way that is deigned for them by God ...for healing continues to b a very personal an individual road according to each person's needs, make up, an background. Too much might break someone an too little stagnates growth ...an that line differs for all of us. Our presentation is vital so not to discourage one soul on their journey...we cannot have all the answers...only God does ....especially wen we have not walked thru with someone. To those suffering with mental illness i say Don't worry, go forward always taking into consideration all the ideas an input people have given u, taking wat will work for u...wat u discern from prayer as applicable for ur situation an safety an wat u can handle. I am sure the tremendouse medical teams would shed much lite on those who talk negative about people who r sick an on their limited interpretation of the mentally ill an their sufferings. May we become a blessing to a person suffering with mental illness...dont look far...i am sure there us 1 rt in ur family/friend circle...an if u r sick, hold on...lets listen to
"Maybe its ok"....an see where we fit in.

Ex: reply to someone trying to control ur life decisions
Ty for sharing so much of ur life experience with me yesterday. Although i understand ur approach, after much discernment, rt now i need to gently walk thru this time which is enough work an suffering all its own.
I also have to continue to evolve in the way that is deigned for me by God ...for healing continues to b a very personal an individual road according to each person's needs, make up, an background. Too much might break someone an too little stagnates growth an that line differs for all of us. I will go forward with all the ideas an input people have given me, taking wat will work for me...wat i want an discern from prayer as applicable for my situation an safety an leaving the rest. I again always ty for all ur desire to help .

Mistreatment ..abusive relationships
No one deserves mistreatment...... We are not responsible for others lives or their happiness... or their situations and by no means should we internalize anything negative that comes out of anyone.. If we must ...separate from those abusive people who feel they have all the answers for our lives...who beat us up every time we r together.
.. We are God's children...The Lord knows us.. . loves us ...accepts us ..and appreciates us ..we should never let anything rule our peace or our joy ...and if we make a mistake...we can confess an go forward..if we still cant attain peace....we can go to mass or call our priest...go to confession ..go speak to them.. Or visit with a person who truly luvs us an who luvs God..it'll help.
WE R BEAUTIFUL...
HOLY...WISE...
growing by leaps an bounds into the person of God He created us to b....God is strengthening our muscles not to internalize any negative abusive comments any more.... We all r beautiful people who deserve to b treated as such!!! An wen we fall into criticizing an abusing others ..let us apologize an remember how it feels to b on the receiving end.

Possibly called to b sister..nun..brother or priest
If u even have a passing thought about being called to b a sister..a nun...or a brother or priest...that thought is a good one. Do not share this with anyone who is not holy...no family...only good an holy priests from ur parish...nuns.....sisters..
.because others cannot treasure wat they do not value as Precious. ...keep growing in leaps an bounds an continue drawing closer to Christ so u hear from Him Alone wat He wants from ur life. This is a time of deep discernment. Wait on God!!

For Married Couples
Steven Curtis Chapman, a professional Christian music
artist, was on television 2 nites ago and he sang his song," I will be here". He gave the introduction explaining that when his own parents shocked everyone and got divorced after many years of marriage, he wrote this song to his wife, to assure her of his fidelity that no matter what passed their way ..he would stay true to his vows an committment through it all.
Praying hard for every man an woman joined in Holy Matrimony...hoping this song offers an encouragement, hope an rededication to one another. God bless!!

The Lyrics:
Tomorrow morning if you wake up,
And the sun does not appear
I, I will be here
And the sun does not appear
I, I will be here
If in the dark we lose sight of love,
Hold my hand, and have no fear
Cause I, I will be here
Hold my hand, and have no fear
Cause I, I will be here
I will be here when you feel like being quiet
When you need to speak your mind,
I will listen and
I will be here when the laughter turns to cryin'
Through the winning, losing and tryin'
We'll be together 'cause I will be here
When you need to speak your mind,
I will listen and
I will be here when the laughter turns to cryin'
Through the winning, losing and tryin'
We'll be together 'cause I will be here
Tomorrow morning if you wake up,
And the future is unclear
I I will be here
As sure as seasons are made for change,
Our lifetime's are made for years
So, I I will be here
And the future is unclear
I I will be here
As sure as seasons are made for change,
Our lifetime's are made for years
So, I I will be here
I will be here and you can cry on my shoulder,
When the mirror tells us we're older,
I will hold you and
I will be here to watch you grow in beauty
And tell you all the things you are to me
I will be here
When the mirror tells us we're older,
I will hold you and
I will be here to watch you grow in beauty
And tell you all the things you are to me
I will be here
I will be true to the promise I have made
To you and to the One who gave you to me
To you and to the One who gave you to me
I I will be here
And just as sure as seasons are made for change
Our lifetime's are made for years
So, I I will be here we'll be together
Our lifetime's are made for years
So, I I will be here we'll be together
I will be here

Words from Ed, my dear brother in Christ!
EVERY WED TWO PEOPLE JOIN ME AN WE ALL FAST..PRAY..AN GIVES ALMS FOR EACH OF OUR FAMILIES. WE ALL CARRY MUCH AN THE WORD OF GOD SAYS 3 (OR MORE) MAKES A KNOT THAT CANT B BROKEN ..AN SO MY FRIEND ,AN DEAR BROTHER IN CHRIST, ED, SENT THIS TO ME THIS PAST WED...GREAT FOOD FOR THE SOUL...
"God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son to save all who have faith in him, and to give them eternal life, alleluia."
Fasting today out of gratitude and Love---denying self to acknowledge with the flesh that He is God and there is no other! That He is the One that satisfies us! That He fills us up to the point of overflow, and even that's not enough, we want MORE of HIM.
May he shower blessings on all the intentions of our hearts.

except in the case of young children ....we never want people to b forced to go to God...we want them to experience a Deep an Lasting Conversion ...an Interior Experience with Him themselves that will Last Forever.....they r free to say no...an they need to feel our allowance of their freedom to choose. We can invite lovingly an then accept their reply an their choice while continuing to pray diligently. Remember God Loves them Infinitely more than we do an Desires their finding Him...so we leave that Deep Interior Work to Him.
God does not take our freedom to choose....neither should we...
b peaceful...their Salvation is Gods problem...not ours...just pray for them an continue to b a gentle holy example...
remembering
IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME....THEY HAVE A PRAYING WIFE AN MAMA..HUSBAND AN DADDY...FRIEND...
GODPARENTS..ETC..
"devil GET OUT OF THE WAY...TREMBLE BECAUSE JESUS LIVES!!!!!-
THE GOD WE SERVE LIVES AN THIS SOUL IS HIS EVEN IF THEY DONT NO IT YET!"

Sin...confession...contrition...Holy Week begins
We all desperately need the Mercy of God everyday.. every minute. Sometimes we fall hard ...God allows the fall an then tries to get our attention to make us realize that we better watch ourselves that maybe we're becoming prideful and we think maybe we don't need God. Confess...lets begin with a good confession this Holy Week...tell him we r sorry...cry an wail....look at a Crucifix an b reminded u an i put Him there...watch Passion of The Christ Movie an own our own contributions to His Death an Sufferings. Then beg for help to do some more prayer ..fasting an almsgiving to thank Him an beg again for help to sincerely amend our lives...
I luv this act of contrition prayer i found online;
"Forgive me my sins, O Lord,
forgive me my sins;
the sins of my youth,
the sins of my age,
the sins of my soul,
the sins of my body;
my idle sins,
my serious voluntary sins;
the sins I know,
the sins I do not know;
the sins I have concealed for so long,
and which are now hidden from my memory.
I am truly sorry for every sin, mortal and venial,
for all the sins of my childhood up to the present hour.
I know my sins have wounded Thy Tender Heart,
O My Savior, let me be freed from the bonds of evil through
the most bitter Passion of My Redeemer.
Amen.
O My Jesus, forget and forgive what I have been.
Amen.."
Til next time...lets look up
Is 58...on fasting...an chew on those Words...
HOLY WEEK BEGINS...THIS WEEKEND PALM SUNDAY...LETS GO TO CHURCH...LISTEN WELL...ENTER INTO THE HOLIEST WEEK ON THE CHRISTIAN CALENDAR...MANY GRACES AN BLESSING AVAILABLE TO THOSE OPEN TO RECEIVE .

Catholic Mystic beginners booklist
I really think that we should start to read more of the mystics.
There is a book 1. Armchair Mystic by Mark Thibodeaux and it is a book about easing into contemplative prayer...
2. Abandonment to Divine Providence by Jean Pierre de Caussade...
3. An old book is called Spiritual Diary ... selected sayings and examples of saints ..it was put out by Saint Paul Editions.. I hope you can find it
4. A Desert in the Ocean by David Adam ..it is the spiritual journey according to Saint Brendan the Navigator.
These books are not ordinary I only recommend them to those who hunger for more of God. In order for us to go deeper we need to read from the lives of those who went deep before us... the mystics... the martyrs ...the saints that walked before us. There's lots of wisdom and years of experience in these types of books. I hope these few help. Always in my prayers....plz keep me in urs. ..if u r ready for the meat an potatoes..then start with these...😊🙏💒 God bless!!!

LEARNING TO DISCERN THE 'VOICE' OF GOD...
Learning to discern Gods Voice starts with praying sincerely looking for His answer an then doing wat feels right deep inside...lets join together in prayer today for God to b clear wat is best ..for He has the Whole Picture which we dont. Then wen u revisit should i or shouldnt i...u see wat feels rt for u an if 1 thing still ping pongs with joy deep down...then that is it.. that is wat God wants...the process is that simple. This is a process of learning a different way to live than the way we were raised...God has the Right Answer every time...we just have to ask ,listen an then proceed.
And we quiet those noisey voices that continue to think God will tell us
indirectly thru them. He needs no inbetweens...if we stay close to Him...He will relay His Messages directly to us....
talking with others is always gd cause many minds r better than 1...an it is gd to see all options ...but the ultimate choice is always ours. Even God does not take away our freedom to choose.. .so always go to those people who talk with no demanding that their way is the only way...go to people who will talk an then push u into the arms of God to finalize ur decision. An always wait til it feels rt....wen in doubt... stand still an pray some more. ..this is a Great life Principle.....LEARNING TO DISCERN THE 'VOICE' OF GOD...
What this is...is a session in Spiritual Direction which is what I help many great people do. It is different than counseling but can be extremely helpful in life. Majority of the Saints before us all had spiritual directors to help them stay the course to God and fulfilling their purpose and Mission in this life. People often ask why i want to help everyone...why do i care...every person is my little sister ..brother ..my friend... a child of God.. therefore we are related...of course i care!!!
If the idea u r discerning is a good an holy idea....keep asking God which choice is better for u..but we need to separate rt an wrong an if neither is a sin or a bad decision...then it is just a beautiful option. ...an we can calmly wait on the guidance from God....wen it feels so right...wen u no because u no...That is God...THAT is Him...ur joy an energy may explode...or it may just sit well in ur heart....
I pray we learn to sit at The Masters Feet in silence waiting patiently on His Instructions alone......
If u r interested in Spiritual Direction pray to God to help u discern who it is u should go to.....He has the perfect one to journey with u...an if i can help feel free to leave me a note here on this site.
Til next time...lets try to learn how to discern every choice before us...so that more an more our lives become alligned with God's Perfect Will for us.
Be assured of my continued prayers for all of u...an plz remember me in urs. angie

To a young couple preparing for Marriage
Wen a man an woman r being led by God to begin a new life truly as ONE that is the time to forego ur pasts to journey forward doing wat ur souls hunger for...ignoring all the noisey voices around an following God in ur hearts. Wen in doubt stop...stand still...an pray...If u dont start to stand against the tide an stand on ur own journey...u may find urself fighting with others ur whole life to evolve an live FREELY to fulfill ur mission an purpose...they will sadly continue to interfere an dominate in every decision that lies ahead. Cant plz everyone ...an it is only necessary to plz God first an follow His Lead which He shows us in our hearts an desires wen we stay close to Him. Stay true to who u r.
....There r always lots of possibilities...
keep dreaming ....Wen we stop dreaming miracles slow down....as we get older we become more limited an practical in our dreams rightly so...but u r young...DREAM...PRAY...AN DREAM SOME MORE...
Hope this helps!

Team up together in prayer, almsgiving an fasting
Good morning...Made an offering...a tythe...
almsgiving to a single woman who lost her 30 yr old son in a car accident to help her with her expenses. I just gifted her without a word...but in my mind an heart i offered it as part of the 3 things that we do wen we want to cover people in prayer...next my 9 am mass this morning will b the prayer component ...an last i am fasting this morning also. I tell u not because i want any attention but to remind u of how we fight wen life is too much an is overwhelming an wen we want to get Gods Attention an Help. Prayer...Fasting..an Almsgiving..3..a knot of 3 cords is stronger than 1 or 2 strands...The Bible says that a 3 Strand will not break. An so...this is even better if u join someone an it b 2 or even 3 doing this together for an intention....it is very simple an personal an does not have to b alot or lengthy or the same things i did. God bless...look for Gods Miracles......plz remember me ....Blessed Sunday...rest an enjoy...dance in the kitchen an get someone u luv chocolate an flowers.😊
To God b All the Glory an Honor...an Adoration! Forever !! for any gd we do ...🙏💒😇

Angelina Rotella...Rest in Peace
Sometimes in life we r given Sacrificial Love ...in my case from my Dear Mother...an then when the tables turn we get called to give that same Love in return.
Mom...it has been my awesome privilege to journey with you all these years...to put into practice all we say we believe in from The Gospel...day in an day out. The world has lost its respect for the value of all life...from conception to natural death. Our elders r forgotten an buried long before they die. The lessons learned an growth achieved in this most marvelous journey of caregiving can never be attained elsewhere. I pray we all look in our family circles an find those chronically ill an those too old to care for themselves an pray we gladly reach out to carry an love them through...to advocate an fight for their dignity an proper care.
I want to thank all the Medical Professionals who cared for Mom through all this. I especially thank all those Angels who served an helped me in any capacity to lighten my load an embellish Mom's life with Love an visits.
Mom had many sayings:
MOST SACRED HEART OF JESUS I PLACE MY TRUST IN THEE!
DO FOR OTHERS WHILE THEY ARE ALIVE...DONT WAIT UNTIL THEY DIE.
THANK YOU GOD!
Mom you are my Favorite...i really Love you FOREVER...You are my Mom an my Very Best Friend! See ya on the Other Side! Plz pray for me!
Hugs!!! angie rotella-suarez...
daughter, caregiver and friend

Prescription wen u dont no wat to do
We cannot force anything on anybody even if
reconciliation is their greatest desire also. We cannot tell any one what to do or when. Wen we r unsure wat to do here is the prescription every time:
Go to church and sit in silence. Do this before the Blessed Sacrament and let Christ speak to you ...to your soul. Anytime your mind starts to interfere pleading or trying to bring forth its own agenda ask for it to be quiet and just be still asking Christ to speak clearly the how.. the if and the when of a meeting....dont rush this meeting...but dont delay...always remember the Scripture EVEN IF HIS MIND FAIL HIM referring to parents....but that applies to every human being including ourselves. Everyone is entitled to Mercy by God's Design. Try to approach this by watching cautiously ur tone...Do i sound like a modern catty demanding overbearing liberal person or do i reflect the Holy.. Loving.. Warm.. Obedient ..Conservative ..willing to Listen.. Patience of My Dear Mother Mary...this is the only sure way to become the saints God created us to b ...a saint an nothing less!!!!
caution about predicting sentiment or anxiety...one cannot no a person really well with no regular contact or real relationship or without being God Himself...an remember no HAS TO...SHOULD HAVE...OR COULD HAVE...every one is free an if God doesnt take any of our freedom...or wag his pointer finger in our face then we cannot do that either....this is hard stuff wen we want revenge or wen we want so badly justice....
Dont force anything...let God an Sincere Luv lead...
If we follow this prescription all will always b well...

Obligation to attend holiday function or choice?
Feelings don't matter....
conscious decision of mind an will r all we need...a decision to Love God...decision to continue to grow...decision to Love even wen it is not deserved
As the 12 step programs teach make a decision to turn our will and life over to God.
If a ride alone is too much for u to attend a function don't go....friend/family gatherings r often superficial....we want to invest our energy in relationships an events that will fill us not drain us . wen in a weaker state..we must trust our inner voice....an ignore everyone else s guilt trip to do it their way or attend something that we r not comfortable with .
We may be putting ourselves in harm's way if we go an don't listen to our inner voice.
We have to learn to follow wat we no works for us regardless of opinions or obligation....no one will then come an cook or wash for us....or care for our responsibilities after.
Decide in wisdom...pray...but listen deeply an b sure God is first..you second in all our decisions
Move slowly...pray first before u decide anything
We must b cautious not to say we will pray for an answer without stopping an doing so ...otherwise it is our decision not Gods.
He knows wat is best...best 4 u an i.
Blessed Christmas to all...remember it is Jesus Birthday....not ours...take time to give Him a present...

Urgent Prayer request for CARE GIVERS
I am calling out for prayers...fasting...an alms giving for all caregivers.Only with ur prayerful participation carrying us...will we b able to press on care giving for the ill an elderly. Every day requires a 'dying' to self...a saintly patience...an virtuous courage an endurance which sadly run short in this world. We carry home..an
work..
an we do it mostly alone. I write in confident Hope that HIS GRACE IS SUFFICIENT..an with the girding up from all of u we will b able to complete the mission God has called us to well. For every failure we beg His Mercy...for every Victory Jesus Alone gets all The Glory! Ty...how rich we are to have Warriors who will fight with us..an for us.. an beside us...before Our Faithful God an King!! Our weariness only allows Our God to shine more in our lives an in these situations. TO HIM ALONE B ALL HONOR AN GLORY AN PRAISE!!! remembering All Life is precious from conception to natural death...an we will honor our mothers an fathers....all our elders..an continue to care for our disabled children..
relatives...
friends without
rest because God says they r Special an they r His...an therefore they r ours. God bless u for ur participation in this most important calling!...God bless all caregivers who go unnoticed...
unsupported...
an r viewed as unimportant by men....but treasures to God!
Til next time find a care giver in ur life an bless them in a tangible way...a meal...flowers...bag of groceries...some time off...invite them out...a gift..etc...etc...in this way u will gift Jesus in the Manger...
"FOR WEN U DID IT FOR THE LEAST IF THESE...U DID IT UNTO ME!!"
MERRY...HOLY...BLESSED CHRISTMAS!!!

Life is precious from conception to natural death!
Forgive me for not writing. My 95 yr old Mom was very ill an in hospital an rehab for 2 mths. By the grace of God she is home an i am her full time care giver an so my limited time to b able to write. Many people r caring for the sick an i thought it might b gd to share the following with u.
I can never agree with a persons choice to die...assisted suicide or euthanasia. It is a totally different thing when naturally the body shuts down ..wen we choose not to use extraordinary means to save a life...but if we stop giving food an water a person starves or dehydrates to death...a painful process...not to say thirst an hunger don't naturally diminish close to death but small amounts of food an water r given until a person naturally goes leaving the decision of death to God. Here is a long but clear view of the Catholic Church's view on the Bioethics of death an dying based in The Scriptures from The Old Testament
"God did not make death, nor does He rejoice in the destruction of the living."
WISDOM 1:13
I think it may b good to read this in its entirety to better understand our Catholic view ...mayb a different view from our own. An even now as we all journey towards God...this process for my Mom an i is a time of growth an development. For where in life does a soul learn real total dependence on God but in the position we r in?..where does a soul develop Godly patience an heroic courage an kindness an luv...qualities of the great saints before us? There is an appointed time for our passing...an we must never rush that nor interfere with that ...an prayer is the only vehicle that can give us deep discernment where we may hear from God an obey without full understanding following the example of Father Abraham before us. May God Himself guide us an invade our privacy to hear ONLY HIS VOICE...that we may know His Perfect Will an have the courage to do it!! All Life from conception to natural death is precious! May we live according to this Truth ..
Til next time lets read this an take this deep into prayer to understand better God's approach to life an death.
Blessed Christmas to u! B assured of my continued prayers!!

Caution seeking human healers...Jesus The Only Real Healer
...about healers....i recommend great caution with going to healers. One has to b tried n true to b able to claim that they heal..an those who have the gift know it is not them but Jesus Who heals as The Word says only "thru prayer an fasting" ...& "almsgiving"....a real healer would never charge u a penny...an these false healers open us up to negativity....an also weary God Who desires all our time an attention because He is THE ONE AN ONLY HEALER ... The Healer Par Excellant..... Maybe we can sit with God ......pray...listen..just be..
...an let God heal us as He sees fit....

Some words . to help center us..
We must continue to learn to b very spontaneous and flexible. God has an appointed moment for everything.
Stop...eat calmly....deep breaths....look far away to rest eyes from close work...an stop trying to solve everything fast...it will come...just pray
B at peace...b present an do ur work unto the Glory of God...HE has given u this job....do it well...b obedient an give gd labor for fair pay...everything can b a prayer...offer ur last hour up to just tell God how much u love Him...wen u put a value like that on something as trivial as work it becomes the greatest privilege to do well
Remember...less caffeine

Forgiveness & Love heals families
Remember Love an Forgiveness is wat makes families thrive. And sometimes we must b the bigger person an start the healing... sometimes being silent wen we want to justify ourselves letting God defend us in His time an in His Way... Sometimes we say we r sorry even wen we did nothing wrong for God to ultimately win the war....we do this knowing that as we "die" a little... resurrection can come. This is true humility an Deep Love that can only come from The Perfect Father pouring it out into those of us chasing Him. If we do the same things we have done the same way..we get the same results...but wen we r willing to go where no one else has gone...Gods Miracles await!!!
USHER MIRACLES INTO UR FAMILY !! U R A GREAT PERSON SEEKING HOLINESS...
DONT B AFRAID TO DO THINGS DIFFERENTLY ....Always ask..."How would Jesus handle this" an b courageous enough to do it!!! Be assured of my continued prayers for u......an all those u love...

Husbands an wives: Gods Truth can never change...
This weekend was the Conference of the Family in Ireland with Pope Francis. Many stories of different families an their struggles...
celebrations...
Masses...
concerts ...500,000 people from families an children from all over the world just like u an i. The Catholic Church is very much still alive an flourishing. It was no surprise that the reading at Mass yesterday was the one below to coordinate with this theme of Marriage.....rather than read it listing wat our spouse is not doing right...maybe we can read it an see where we r falling short of living Gods Principles ourselves...God surely knows better than we an yet we continue to hear Gods Words an Ways an say "no"..how foolish we r. God wants us to follow Jesus all the Way especially now ....
remember God is merciful if we ask forgiveness but He can never change wat is The Truth in the Gospel...His Words Stand at all time regardless of wat the society an man say....an i am the first who needs The Words of this blog an to apply them in my own sinful life!
Til next time lets read Ephesians 5:21-32 an see wat God might b speaking to us....areas that need change...

No negative ...only Charity with elders, caregivers...everyone!
Just a word to those who have elderly they no...people 80+...older people should not be burdened or focused on people's illnesses....the details of hospitalizations...people dying...things that r heavy an stressful. They have much to carry an less coping skills. We burden them thinking they need to carry us an our lists of complaints an sorrows. Even if they look gd dont b deceived...as soon as u hang up they cry an become overwhelmed by the details of ur conversation. Only we caregivers no because we r on 24/7. Even if they have some form of memory issues..dementia...or Alzheimers..they whimper all nite....have bad nites sleep...cry....have full body or partial tremor in fear an anxiety an r not themselves. We caregivers lose too much sleep because of the ignorance or arrogance of people not willing to listen to caregivers nor b sensitive to the plight of both elder an caregiver. We r up at nite...have no misconception...but extra problems at nite must b prevented because we caregivers also cant run on empty an have to work an function too. Too often most family think a 5 min call or 1 hour visit makes a dent in 24 hours...Elders who r limited an have lots of time get haunted by negative info like this an their suffering becomes ongoing wen younger ones dump or feel a need to be 'totally' honest even if it hurts the listener..it doesnt just go away an this has a serious impact on their lives an ours... details like this over an over again can push them over the edge mentally an emotionally. Keep ur conversations with elderly lite...an even spare every person by being sensitive to their fears an anxieties. I always shut the tv on those negative commercials or shows...we do not have to live every detail of another's sufferings...we can help...listen..be compassionate..but we always must preserve our own peace of mind an heart as well an no our limits to not become overwhelmed or burdened. We were never meant to carry the sufferings of the world...our own r enough . An we deny people the opportunity to go to God wen we try to b Him. Although media has its place..it often overloads our already burdened nervous systems
We all carry alot in life...but we must not assume our burden is better or worse than another's. This is a common sense issue...everyone should understand not burdening an elder ....an not overburdening anyone is true charity. B sensitive, compassionate an watch an listen for signals wen u r sharing ur pain an sufferings or negative stories to the listener's response. Have the wisdom an self control to stop wen the other is saturated...Anything u can do to help we caregivers an our patients ....all people..is greatly appreciated. All of us r in agreement that we need to protect each others well being especially in the last days of life...
Til next time lets call an elder in our family an 1 friend an bring only Love Hope an Joy leaving our problems to God Alone!!

A lot of us grew up believing
At any moment we could lose it all
And at the drop of a hat
God might turn His back and move on
A lot of us feel like we blew it
Thinking that we're just too far gone
But I want you to know
There's still a hope for you now
At any moment we could lose it all
And at the drop of a hat
God might turn His back and move on
A lot of us feel like we blew it
Thinking that we're just too far gone
But I want you to know
There's still a hope for you now
No matter what you've done
You can't erase His love
Nothing can change it
You're not separated
No matter what
You can't erase His love
Nothing can change it
You're not separated
No matter what
There's never been a better time to get honest
There's never been a better time to get clean
So come as you are
Run to the cross and be free
Oh, be free
There's never been a better time to get clean
So come as you are
Run to the cross and be free
Oh, be free
No matter what you've done
You can't erase His love
Nothing can change it
You're not separated
No matter where you run
He's always holding on
You're still a daughter, you're still a son
No matter what
You can't erase His love
Nothing can change it
You're not separated
No matter where you run
He's always holding on
You're still a daughter, you're still a son
No matter what
I don't know what you've been taught
Don't know what you've been told
All I know is my God
Will never let go of you, no
And I don't know what you've seen
Don't know what you've been through
All I know is my God
Will never let go of you
He'll never let go!
He'll never, never, never let you go
Don't know what you've been told
All I know is my God
Will never let go of you, no
And I don't know what you've seen
Don't know what you've been through
All I know is my God
Will never let go of you
He'll never let go!
He'll never, never, never let you go
No matter what you've done
You can't erase His love
Nothing can change it
You're not separated
No matter where you run
He's always holding on
You're still a daughter, you're still a son
No matter what
You can't erase His love
Nothing can change it
You're not separated
No matter where you run
He's always holding on
You're still a daughter, you're still a son
No matter what
You're still a daughter, you're still a son!
No matter what
No matter what

Jeremiah 23:1-6
Reading 1JER 23:1-6
Woe to the shepherds
who mislead and scatter the flock of my pasture,
says the LORD.
Therefore, thus says the LORD, the God of Israel,
against the shepherds who shepherd my people:
You have scattered my sheep and driven them away.
You have not cared for them,
but I will take care to punish your evil deeds.
I myself will gather the remnant of my flock
from all the lands to which I have driven them
and bring them back to their meadow;
there they shall increase and multiply.
I will appoint shepherds for them who will shepherd them
so that they need no longer fear and tremble;
and none shall be missing, says the LORD.
Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD,
when I will raise up a righteous shoot to David;
as king he shall reign and govern wisely,
he shall do what is just and right in the land.
In his days Judah shall be saved,
Israel shall dwell in security.
This is the name they give him:
"The LORD our justice."
who mislead and scatter the flock of my pasture,
says the LORD.
Therefore, thus says the LORD, the God of Israel,
against the shepherds who shepherd my people:
You have scattered my sheep and driven them away.
You have not cared for them,
but I will take care to punish your evil deeds.
I myself will gather the remnant of my flock
from all the lands to which I have driven them
and bring them back to their meadow;
there they shall increase and multiply.
I will appoint shepherds for them who will shepherd them
so that they need no longer fear and tremble;
and none shall be missing, says the LORD.
Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD,
when I will raise up a righteous shoot to David;
as king he shall reign and govern wisely,
he shall do what is just and right in the land.
In his days Judah shall be saved,
Israel shall dwell in security.
This is the name they give him:
"The LORD our justice."

To caregivers an their families
After asking for prayer support in my care giving of my 94 yr old Mother ,a friend replied to my plea as i explained that it is not so much the physical exhaustion but the mental an emotional as one learns to exercise an develop muscles in patience, compassion an self control that i received this most beautiful reply:
"Angie, when I cared for my Mom, and later Dad, at the end of their lives I had the same exhaustion you described. I determined that each of them were my priority in their need. I was guided by the thought that I would never regret the blessed moments I had with each of them and I have been overly rewarded as result. Be well always."
These words r for all who take on the exhausting an lonely task of caring for elderly parents....or any sick an disabled family member...be encouraged...we r doing God's work an putting His Words, so easily spoken by most, into action. To Him Alone be all Glory an Honor an Power forever! May He complete the good work He has begun in us for it is only by His Grace that we do wat we do.
Til next time...find a caregiver in ur circle an bless them first with ur deep prayer support an second in some beautiful tangible action of Love an support. Remember, if u r related to them, that they have no obligation to do wat they do. They just stepped up to the plate wen no one else would so b kind an gracious to them. (A card...soup...take over an give them some time off...flowers...a gift...invite them out for coffee or a meal...shop for them...help with household chores, give them a certificate for a massage....a letter...have a mass said for them...be creative...an it does not have to cost much of. anything) angie

There is an authentic Catholic site that has books an other things for free if u order one for yourself...an they offer them in bulk for just a few dollars each...it is time for us to evangelize our Catholics an remind ourselves ..our families ..all those we know.. an our congregations that "THERE'S GENIUS IN CATHOLICISM!" Which is Matthew Kelly ,the founder of Dynamic Catholic an Catholic
author's favorite saying. It is time for us all to be reminded that the Catholic Church, regardless of its scandals, coverups, abuse, an tarnishing of the priesthood by a small group of lost clergy, is much more than wat the news portrays. Go to this site....research...there r many great resources available for pastor , catechist, church an lay person alike. It is time for us to rise an bring visible the Dignity of Our Roman Catholic Church to Light again. I will help anyone i can thru spiritual direction or retreat for home groups an churches...feel free to call on me for help. Matt's book REDISCOVER CATHOLICISM an RESISTING HAPPINESS r two books i got for my choir as retreats for summer reading. They r excellent an r not just for beginners to the faith. I pray u will take a minute to search this site an become the leader in passing on our wonderful gems of faith...helping catholics regain who they really are. God bless u an God bless our Roman Catholic Church!!! Til next time ck out the site angie

My reply to those disillusioned by some Catholics
Fake Christians r everywhere sadly to say. In all churches there r the remnant an then those who still r working on finding their relationship with God. We pray for all. Our conversion happened wen we were ready at that moment an hopefully continues daily. My intimacy became espousal with Christ in the Catholic Church an because of This Church as well. Conversion happens wen people r in the Catholic or Orthodox or Coptic or other denominations too....but it happens at the appointed time an wen a soul is ready to receive. Sadly most do not understand the road is narrow yet ..but our trust is in His Mercy. Maybe most havent been given the capacity to hunger like us. Maybe they r simple an like little children an we have much more to learn from them then they from us. There is a whole Truth an it is important for us who hunger to understand the why in things to continue to ask God to reveal Truth in All Its Fullness...also important to no that God is way beyond our own thoughts
understanding.
We must pray an always b open to being taught. He reveals fullness of Truths wen He wants... an wen we r open an ready.
May we continue to b God chasers in Jesus Name. May we continue to be teachable by Him Alone. May we remember we no nothing an God knows everything. May we b simple an humble an prideless an recognize we do not have all the answers but He does. He needs no help from us to bring us ,His children ,to fullness of Truth. Silently sitting quiet with Him an not always using words allows us to hear...may we embrace this quiet letting Him lead. It is no mistake that u may be back in the Catholic Church at this time in ur life. U r not here to convert us out of this church. God has put you here an drawn u in at this time of ur life for a good reason. Consider sitting with your priest to talk...u might b very surprised in wat u hear. Always praying for u an all ur loved ones. Ty for covering me an mine.
