What do YOU Believe?

There's many Catholic's today .. most think they're good Catholic's. Just look at the politicians that proudly prance up to receive Holy Communion without a second thought when they've clearly trashed Dogma in public. But there's an even more sinister problem among Catholic's today ... and that is that the deal is that you believe it ALL, not just what's convenient for you or what fits into your individual lifestyle.
I guess this is where the term "cafeteria Catholic" came from. Folks that pick and choose what they will accept from Rome by way of the Magesterium and Dogma and what they deem irrelevant so they can keep on sinning with a clear (ahem) conscience.
It's all or nothing folks ... remember, ya can't be a LITTLE BIT PREGNANT ... you either ARE or you're NOT. PERIOD. We need to think a lot ... We need to PRAY, EVEN MORE! What DO we believe? What DO we hold DEAR? .... "For where your treasure is, there your heart will also be."

  1. I wish our Catholic Priests would say this.

  2. Me too! We need to pray for our priests and even more so for the Bishops! So many have been stricken with complacency in these days of political correctness and not wanting to offend that they forget the initial objective is to make sure souls go to heaven! We are not helping our brothers if we confirm them in their sin rather than get into an uncomfortable situation. We need to lovingly show the error and the path to the solution along with the direction to the closest confessional! :)

    Please join me in praying daily that all Bishops and priests receive the grace to be the servants that Jesus would have them be!

The Apostle, St. John tells us exactly how to recognize the spirit of truth from the spirit of falsehood. He says "as for them, they are of the world - and the world listens to them because they speak the language of the world. But we are children of God and those who know God: LISTEN TO US. Those who are not of God REFUSE TO LISTEN TO US. That is how we can tell the spirit of truth from the spirit of falsehood." ~1 John 4:6 [The "us" to whom St. John refers are the Apostles, and their successors the Bishops.]

Prayer to avoid the Sin of PRIDE:
“Oh My Jesus help me to avoid the sin of pride when I speak in Your Name. Forgive me if I ever belittle anyone in Your holy Name. Help me to listen Jesus when Your Voice is spoken and fill me with Your Holy Spirit so that I can discern the truth of Your Word when You call out to mankind. Amen.”


A prayer of St. Teresa of Avila:
O my God! Source of all mercy! I acknowledge Your sovereign power. While recalling the wasted years that are past, I believe that You, Lord, can in an instant turn this loss to gain. Miserable as I am, yet I firmly believe that You can do all things. Please restore to me the time lost, giving me Your grace, both now and in the future, that I may appear before You in "wedding garments." Amen.


“My children, let your speech be chosen with great care—it must be a light in the world. Know and believe that all you say has repercussions in time and eternity. Therefore, choose your words with wisdom and prudence, choosing to remain silent rather than fill the air with useless chatter or worse, gossip or virulent speech. Let your speech be a perfect mirror of your peaceful heart, a heart firmly grounded in the love of God and in complete trust in His goodness. Silence is often the more virtuous path. Bridle your tongue and you will be working for peace in the world.”

In the Name of Jesus I renounce as lies all thoughts that enter my mind from the evil one who accuses. By the authority of Jesus, I command them to leave me. I consecrate my mind to God for transformation into His Thoughts for my protection, salvation and His glory.

It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people.

Just a Note:

Through the grace of God and many prayers, I survived a double surgery (with cancer) in the fall of 2008. Since then has becoming increasingly important to me to enhance my prayer life. I have taken on the task of praying for strangers and those with little hope and much adversity. To that end, I've also begun (July '09), to make rosaries and related items to put prayer into the hands of as many as I can that will PRAY for others.

The world is at the precipice ... we need to TAKE ACTION ... NOW. Time for fence sitting is quickly coming to an end. We all need to do what ever we can in the way of PRAYER & PENANCE to beg God's Grace upon humanity that we may shake away this sinfulness and pride to get back on the road that leads to heaven and our Glorious Triune God!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After you have made a decision that is pleasing to God, the devil may try to make you have second thoughts. Intensify your prayer time, meditation, and good deeds. For if satan's temptations merely cause you to increase your efforts to grow in holiness, he'll have an incentive to leave you alone.
~St. Ignatius of Loyola
