You can not stop God from loving You


You can’t stop God from loving you,
Though you may disobey Him.
You can’t stop God from loving you, 
However you betray Him; 
From love like this, No power on earth 
The human heart can sever.
You can’t stop God from loving you,
Not God, not now, nor ever.

Prayer for the Home



Mother of perpetual Help, we choose You as Queen of our Homes. We ask You to bless all our families with your tender Motherly love. May the Sacrament of marriage bind husbands and wives so closely together that they will always be faithful to each other and love one another as Christ love His church. We ask You to bless all parents. May they love and cherish their children whom God has entrusted to them. May they always give the example of a truly Christian life.
Amen.

Everyday God has Always Plans for Us



Today, consider the "plans He has for you". God created you to be unique. Uniquely His. Don't let the jealous naysayer the enemy has placed in your path distract you from His plans. The individuals that are not for you are against you. Do not allow Satan to distract you from God's plan. There will always be critics and people that will attempt to tear you down, make you lose focus, make you feel less confident and unworthy. Your Savior loves you no matter what...He is all you need for this day. Live for today....live for Him. He approves, ignore those that don't because their opinion ultimately doesn't matter.

May God Bless Everyone!!!
Stay Blessed!

The Quilt


As I faced my Maker at the last Judgment, I knelt before the Lord along with the other souls. Before each of us laid our lives, like the squares of a quilt, in many piles.

An Angel sat before each of us sewing our quilt squares together into a tapestry that was our life.

But as my Angel took each piece of cloth off the pile, I noticed how ragged and empty each of my squares was. They were filled with giant holes! Each square was labeled with a part of my life that had been difficult, the challenges and temptations I was faced with in everyday life. I saw hardships that I had endured, (which were the largest holes of all). 

I glanced around me. Nobody else had such squares. Others had a tiny hole here and there; other tapestries were filled with rich color and the bright hues of worldly fortune.

I gazed upon my own life and was disheartened. My Angel was sewing the ragged pieces of cloth together, threadbare and empty, like binding air. Finally the time came when each life was to be displayed, held up to the light and the scrutiny of truth. The others raised each in turn, holding up their tapestries. So filled their lives had been. 

My Angel looked upon me, and nodded for me to rise. My gaze dropped to the ground in shame. I hadn't had all the earthly fortunes. I had love in my life, and laughter. But there had also been trials of illness, death, and false accusations that took from me my world as I knew it. I had to start over many times. I often struggled with the temptation to quit, only to somehow mustering the strength to pick up and begin again. I had spent many nights on my knees in prayer, asking for help and guidance in my life. I had often been held up to ridicule, which I endured painfully; each time offering it up to the Father, in hopes that I would not melt within my skin beneath the judgmental gaze of those who unfairly judged me. And now, I had to face the truth. My life was what it was, and I had to accept it for what it had been. 

I rose and slowly lifted the combined squares of my life to the light. An awe-filled gasp filled the air. I gazed around at the others who stared at me with eyes wide. Then, I looked upon the tapestry before me. Light flooded through the many holes, creating an image.

The face of Christ.

Then our Lord stood before me, with warmth and love in His eyes. He said,

"Every time you gave over your life to Me, it became My life, My hardships, and My struggles. Each point of light in your life is when you stepped aside and let Me shine through, until there was more of Me than there was of you."

Pray to Loving Father


Good Morning Heavenly Father, daybreak is upon us and we praise You and worship You. Thank You for the sweet rest You provided and for watching over us all through the night. Today Lord, I pray for all my sisters and brothers and thank You for caring about our burdens. At this moment I release every worry, every fear, every trial and every burden that we carry into Your loving arms, so that You can completely comfort us in these areas and lead us to a better place. Thank You, Lord, for ministering to me and my loved ones today. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen.
