Thank you for your reflection Bob.
I’m trying to keep from grumbling too. I do OK to keep my mouth shut but having difficulty getting them out of my thoughts.
Going to a friends funeral today. He passed away at the age of 41. I pray for his wife and two young daughters, ages 12 and 8.
Very sad to say the least.

Thank you Bob!
We all have experiences of rejections or trials and never an easy thing to swallow but praise God from these trials comes fruit. Thanks be to Jesus Christ for being and bearing our trials with us so we may share with Him the Kingdom of God which surrounds us and then Eternity where every tear is swept away.

May all who are suffering cancer along with caregivers who feel the strain to those experiencing war be comforted by Father Son and Holy Spirit. May Mother Mary’s promise ring true as we pray the Rosary for Peace in the World and Conversion of sinners.

God bless us all!

Bob – Thank you. Yes, we continue to pray for our brothers and sisters in Ukraine and Russia — it is important that we pray for the people in Russia as well. Additionally, prayers for our brothers and sisters in Borno state in Nigeria.

Another week into Lent without grumbling Bob! Congratulations and keep up your efforts to refrain from grumbling.

Another week and I ask all who read this to pray for those of us with cancer and thanks to all for your past prayers.

Thank you Bob. Very nice to read this today. Having been rejected abandoned by a father, brother, and a husband: very painful times, Jesus has blessed me abundantly with 10 fold more.
I pray for Anna, Paul, Bill, Kathryn & caregivers, our brothers and sisters in the Ukraine and to Aleushima: I will include my brothers and sisters in Nigeria

Thank you Rob for the insightful reflection. Rejection we all hate and struggle with internally. Indeed we may not be able to control what happen to us externally but we owe it to our selves to process good seed within us to germinate.
While we pray for cancer patients and their care givers and Ukraine, let us remember Nigeria especially in Borno state and other states with majority Christianity in our prayers where so many unreported killings and kidnappings has been ongoing and our faith being threatened.
