now I’m curious about what correction you got ‘re the celebrity suicides. That aside, I’m troubled by the word that God would spare Ahab but not his son! Why would God do that?

“Thoroughly wash me from my guilt and of my sin cleanse me” (Ps 51:4).
Thank you Bob for your reflection. Ever since i started reading the reflection a year ago, I have tried to read the pages every morning before I go to work and also before my morning mass or evening mass ( the latter when I miss my morning mass). Catholic moment page has contributed much to my spiritual journey.

I am from kenya and seeing posts from people all over the world has greatly gen encouraged me .
Please Bob and All pray for me as I begun looking for a job . I have been informed that my role will be declared redundant from 1st July and I have been experiencing not good mood swings …..bitter towards my employers, quick to anger, panicky , removed etc. when I pray am at peace….my prayer request is to get a job and also to be at peace with the current situation.

To judge should be left for God to do. We must humble ourselves and note that God does what is Godlike.

Whenever there is conflict in life it has to do with ego. It is ego that keeps us away from God and the message of the Holy Spirit. Ego wants it all, as Ahab showed. Ego wants to win, be on top, be the most beautiful, the most terrific, own the most, and never be mediocre. Unfortunately in America, we have government leaders that fit this bill. We have Evangelical Christians and other Christians that support this kind of behavior. Sheep in wolves clothes. We need to remember to ask fo God’s grace and blessings to see through all the falsehood. We need to stand united as Christians to be the image of light and love to all the people of the world. Jesus be our light, be our leader. I pray for all those asking for prayers on this platform. God bless the world. Thank you Bob for inspiring us weekly. California

” I will bring the evil upon his house during the reign of his
son.” These words REALLY bother me. They don’t seem like words from my God.
“The Church tries to teach us that every sin is the fault of the sinner and there is no forgiveness without responsibility as Abayenimebor David said above. I agree with him and believe this might be the thoughts of our God. Please help me understand the Biblical words.
Also, let us pray for the parents and children separated at the Mexican border and prayers for the leaders to act on the morality of this evil practice. From Michigan.

Thank you Bob for your beautiful sharing. I am grateful for all that share on A Catholic Moment, but I have to say that you are one if my favorites ?. What a beautiful thing to be reminded that we are brothers and sisters scattered all over the world, and how special it is that we can come together here to share and pray with and for one another. God bless you all! You are all in my prayers as are your intentions. As we read so much about God’s grace and forgiveness, I ask if you could pray for my mother who is filled with anger and resentment. I pray for a softening of her heart and that the Lord’s forgiveness and peace fill her. Have a beautiful day!
