Once again you have written an insightful, practical, and oh so needed reflection for all of us to think about, meditate on, and pray for as we attempt, as followers of Christ, to show the world who He is. And as we all know, we do this best by showing them how much we love, which is impossible without also having the attitude you discussed today. Not easily obtained (only by the grace of God) but oh so necessary to see the change we desire in our world! Lord, open us up to your Spirit so we can see what this truth means for us!

Thank you for bringing these to attention.

The quote, “Christ died for our sins not our minds” seems appropriate here.

Personally, I think questioning scripture, the Church, the Pope, your Bishop and Priest and A Catholic Moment deepen ones understanding of God. What does one learn if you agree with everything that is being said? By challenging another person’s viewpoint you will become knowledgeable about your own faith.

Have nice vacation,

Mark

Have a very good holiday!

I believe The GOOD LORD communicates to HIS PEOPLE through the HOLY SPIRIT. I pray that in all challenges we have the SPIRIT from the FATHER and SON guiding and directing us accordingly
